Summary
Adding users to your PaymentWorks account allows your organization to securely manage vendor information and ensure multiple team members can access and maintain your profile. All users on a vendor account share the same permissions.
This article also includes instructions on how to delete users from your account if access needs to be removed.
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Log In to Your Account
- Go to the PaymentWorks Login Page and sign in using your credentials.
2. Navigate to User Management
- Click Accounts in the left-hand navigation menu.
- Then click Users.
3. Create a New User
- Click the Create User button.
- Fill in the required fields:
- First Name
- Last Name
- Email Address (must not already be associated with an existing PaymentWorks account)
- First Name
- Optional fields:
- Forward messages to email – Allows automatic forwarding of PaymentWorks messages to the user’s email address
-
- Phone number
- Phone number
4. Save Changes
- Click Save to complete the process.
- The new user will receive an email with a temporary password to log in.
- Upon first login, they’ll be prompted to create a new password and set up Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA).
Best Practices for Managing Users
- Grant access intentionally: All vendor users have full access to sensitive information like banking details. Ensure only appropriate team members are added.
- Maintain at least two users: We strongly recommend having more than one active user for continuity in case someone is unavailable or leaves your organization.
Steps to Delete a User
- Log in to your PaymentWorks account
- Click Account in the left-hand menu and then User
- Find the user you would like to delete
- Click the red trashcan icon to the right of the user
- A confirmation pop-up will appear:
Are you sure you wish to remove this User? Removing "User" will permanently revoke their access to the account and application. This action cannot be undone. - Click Delete User to confirm, or Cancel to exit without deleting.
Note: Deleting a user permanently revokes their access. This action cannot be undone.
