Use Swag as a two-factor authentication (2FA) app

If you do not have 2FA set up on Swag, follow the instructions in this article for Employment Hero and payroll accounts, or this article for payroll-only accounts to set this up. You need to enable 2FA in your Swag account before setting up Swag Authenticator.

After you have set up 2FA, then you can set up the Swag Authenticator. The instructions for how to action this are under Step 2: Enrol your device for the Swag Authenticator heading.

If you already have 2FA set up for Swag, then you can immediately move to Step 2: Enrol your device for Swag Authenticator.
