After entering your email address and password and clicking Log in, you may receive a code by email to verify it's you logging in.

To be able to log in you must enter this code sent to the email address you use to log in. Check your inbox, then enter the code on the Verify your email address screen to complete the login process.

If your employer has enabled 2-factor authentication (2FA) for their Sage company, you already have extra security on your login. You won't receive an email verification code. Instead, log in as normal using your 2FA method.

This process doesn't occur every time you log in. It only appears when you log in using a different device for the first time, or at intervals since the last time you logged in.

This security feature is mandatory, and you can't switch it off.

However, you may not be prompted to do this every time you log in. Your admin user can also enable 2FA so you can authenticate using an authenticator app on your phone, or code sent by text or call instead.

Your employer's Sage HR admin user can enable 2FA for your login, so you can authenticate using an authenticator app on your phone or a code sent by text or call instead.

If you haven't received the code when trying to log in, click Resend code at the bottom of the Verify your email address page.

Allow up to 10 minutes to receive this code.

If you still don't receive the code, check your junk/spam folder and ensure your email security doesn't block [email protected].

Contact your employer if the issue persists. They can investigate this further with Sage support.

If you receive an email from [email protected] with a 6-digit code but you aren't trying to log in, change your password immediately. This is the password you use to log in to Sage HR.

You can do this by using the forgot password option on the login screen. We also recommend you inform your employer so they can investigate this further with Sage support.
