- If you have an NFC-enabled smartphone running Android, download and run the Protectimus TOTP Burner app.
- Initiate the software token setup on the system where you require enhanced security.
- Program Protectimus Slim NFC OTP token:
- Run the Protectimus TOTP Burner application.
- Tap the button “Burn the seed”.
- Tap “Scan the QR code” and scan the QR with the secret key you see on your account. You can also input the secret key manually, but we recommend the automatic method. If you enter the seed manually, set the required OTP password lifetime.

- While holding Protectimus Slim NFC near the NFC antenna, tap “Continue”, and wait for a message confirming that the 2FA token was programmed successfully.

Is there any way to centrally pre-provision the Slim NFC before providing it to the user? The specific use case would be for instances where a user is either unwilling or unable to install additional applications, but the organizational requirements specify that the device must be reprogrammed.

Hi Chris! You can safely use a single phone to program several Protectimus Slim NFC tokens. The Protectimus TOTP Burner app does not store secret keys. Also, I’d like to note that these tokens already have the pre-installed secret keys, just like the classic TOTP tokens. We can provide you these secret keys in an encrypted file upon request.
