Share Payworks 2FA with your team — without screenshots.

Most teams sharing Payworks access do it badly: a screenshot in Slack, a personal phone in someone's drawer, a 1Password note that drifts out of date. Here's the right way.

The setup

Three minutes from sign-up to first Payworks code.

  1. 01Sign up for Kaito. Free 14-day trial, no credit card. You'll set up MFA on your own account before adding any tokens.
  2. 02Add the Payworks 2FA seed. In Kaito, go to Tokens → New and either scan the Payworks 2FA QR code or paste the secret. Kaito auto-resolves the Payworks icon.
  3. 03Choose who can see the code. Create a group (e.g. payworks-admins), add the relevant teammates, and grant the group code-only permission on the token.
  4. 04Generate the first code. Anyone in the group opens the token in Kaito and sees the current 6-digit code with a 30-second countdown ring. The view is logged immediately to the audit log.
Why this is better

The Payworks screenshot in Slack vs. Kaito.

Screenshot in Slack
  • • Searchable by everyone in the workspace
  • • Replicated to every device anyone has logged Slack in on
  • • Stays in DM history when teammates leave
  • • No record of who used it when
  • • Encodes the seed itself, valid forever
Payworks via Kaito
  • • Seed encrypted at rest, never sent to clients
  • • Group-permissioned: only authorized teammates see the code
  • • Auto-revoked when someone leaves the group
  • • Every code view logged with user, IP, time
  • • One-click rotation when needed

Sharing tolerated for Payworks

Payworks's terms on account sharing are unclear or grey-area. Many teams share access in practice; doing so via Kaito gives you a clean audit trail if it ever becomes a question.
