If you no longer want to use the Authenticator app on your device, you need to remove your Macquarie ID (Access Code) from the Authenticator app to keep your account secure.
Please note that whenever the Authenticator app asks you for your Macquarie ID, this is your existing Access Code that you use to log in to the online portal.
This will stop notifications from being sent to this device. You will also no longer be able to verify actions from this device.
To remove your Access Code in the Macquarie Authenticator:
- Log in to the Authenticator app
- Select the Menu option at the bottom right of the screen
- Select the three-dot icon on the Macquarie ID tile
- Select Deregister Macquarie ID
- Your Access Code will be delinked from the Authenticator app.
To remove your Access Code in the online portal:
- Click on the Settings icon from the side-menu and select My security
- Scroll down to Connected devices
- Click Manage
- Find the device you wish to deactivate the Authenticator app from and click Deactivate app
