How To Enable 2FA for NameHero Portal

Enabling 2FA (Two Factor Authorization) for your NameHero account will greatly increase the security of your investment! Enabling this feature is easy to do! This tutorial will show you how to do this step by step!


If you already have a google authenticator app installed on your phone, proceed to STEP 2!


STEP 1: Download and install the Google Authenticator App on your phone:


iOS App Store
Android (Google Play)


STEP 2: Login to your NameHero Portal. Once logged in, upper right click on the menu and go to Security Settings.




STEP 3: Click the Two-Factor Authentication tab and then click to enable.



STEP 4: A pop up will appear. Toggle your desired authenticator and click Get Started. For this tutorial we are using the Google Authenticator.



STEP 5: Grab your phone, open the app you have installed or just installed and click the + to scan the code! After it scans, enter in the code on this screen.








STEP 6: After you enter in the code on the previous screen you will see this message. Be sure to record the 'backup' code in case you ever need to authenticate without your phone! It's important to keep this in a safe location as it effectively is a second password.



STEP 7: Almost done! Now that you have enabled 2FA on your NameHero account, logout and give it a test! After you attempt to use your login as you have done in the past, you will see a second screen prompting you for the code in order to login. Grab your phone, open the app and enter in the code you see. This code 'rotates' and will change every so often.
