Multi-factor authentication (MFA)
Learn how to sign in to the N-Genius Online portal with multi-factor authentication (MFA) and how to register or replace an authenticator app.
Network International has enabled MFA for all tenants and merchants with access to the portal. MFA adds a security layer that helps maintain compliance with Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) 4.0. It protects sensitive payment data from unauthorised access.
Verification methods
MFA supports two verification methods:
- Email-based verification codes
- Time-based one-time passwords (TOTPs) from an authenticator app

If you selected App TOPT or Try Another Method, a registration page for authenticator apps opens.
