2-step Verification is a security measure that enhances the protection of your 7shifts account. By adding an additional layer of security, you'll be asked to authenticate your Tip Payouts request (once, within 15 minutes) by SMS text message.
By adding an extra layer of security to your 7shifts account, you challenge unauthorized individuals from gaining access to your account and reduce the risk of cyber theft.
⚠️ Admins can disable 2-step verification for other user levels (except for other Admins). This process requires that the Admin verify themselves.
