How client authorisation works

Macquarie Authenticator is our most secure verification method. It’s a mobile app that sends your clients a push notification to verify certain transactions and account changes.

Your clients may use Macquarie Authenticator to approve Adviser Initiated Payments (AIP) and ad hoc pension payments over $30,000. Your client can approve these payments via Macquarie Authenticator even if they’re travelling overseas – from anywhere they have internet access.

Once you initiate a payment, your client will receive a request via their Macquarie Authenticator app. If your client isn’t registered for Macquarie Authenticator, they can find more instructions in Set up Macquarie Authenticator.

Your client will be able to view the details of the request in the app and approve or deny the request in real-time.

Notification

Your client will receive a notification once you initiate a payment. If this is the first time you’re initiating a request for your client, perhaps speak to your client to ensure notifications have been turned on.
 

Login

Once they get the notification, they’ll need to login to Macquarie Authenticator to view the request.

View request

Once they’ve logged in, they’ll automatically see the payment relating to the notification and can review the details.
 

Approval

If they’re satisfied with the details of the payment, they can approve the payment at the bottom of the page and you’ll be notified via Adviser Online.
