Why can't my client approve a request I previously submitted?

Your client won’t be able to approve a request you’ve previously submitted under the following circumstances:

  • They’ve de-registered from Macquarie Authenticator since submission. To continue with the request, your client will need to re-register for Macquarie Authenticator. Once re-registered, you can resend the push notification to your client from Request Centre. Requests will expire after 30 days if not approved or cancelled.
  • The account signing instructions have changed since submission. For example, a power of attorney has been appointed on a super or pension account. Requests where the signatories have changed since submission will be auto-cancelled.

What if my client is unable to use Macquarie Authenticator?

We understand some of your existing clients may not be able to use Macquarie Authenticator due to vulnerability or accessibility concerns. Your clients may be exempt from using digital requests based on the following:

  • Client experiencing vulnerability
  • Client experiencing accessibility issues such as no smart phone device, no email address or internet accessibility.

Please contact us via live chat to apply for an exemption. Once an exemption has been approved for your client, you’ll be able to use paper forms for the below processes where the paper form has been removed for all other clients. We may not accept the form if your client does not have a digital exemption.
