Not Receiving the Authentication Code Email? | Tips

If you’re not receiving your authentication code when trying to sign in, the steps below to get back on track.

📬 Check Your Inbox (and Other Folders)

Authentication emails can sometimes land outside your main inbox.

  • Check your spam, junk, or promotions folders
  • Try searching your inbox for: “Your Authentication Code—Action Required”

📱 Request a New Code

To send a fresh authentication code:

  • Open the Shift Companion app
  • Enter your email address
  • Tap Sign In

You’ll receive a one-time code via email:

  • The code expires after 15 minutes
  • You can request a new code anytime if needed

🔐 A Few Helpful Notes

  • You’ll need to enter a code the first time you sign in
  • You may also be asked for a new code when using a new device or browser
  • Once signed in, you can stay logged in by simply closing the app (no need to log out)
  • If you’re using a VPN, try turning it off while signing in—it can sometimes trigger additional verification

🔑 Prefer Using a Password?

After verifying your account with a code once, you can set up a password for easier sign-ins moving forward.

  • Your password will work for both the Shift Companion app and your Customer Access Portal
  • Passwords can only be created or updated in your Portal (not within the app)

To set or update your password:

  • Sign in to your Customer Access Portal
  • In your library, click your 👤 profile image (upper right)
  • Select My Account ⚙️
  • Update your password and sign-in preference
