Learn how to securely log in to your account.
When you sign up or log in to Sevalla, you can choose to:
If you choose to log in with your Sevalla account, two-factor authentication is required as part of the login process.
If you need to reset your Sevalla password on your user account, you can start the process on the Sevalla login page.
Sevalla uses Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) to help protect your Sevalla account from unauthorized access, giving you enhanced security and greater peace of mind. 2FA requires an additional verification code sent to your email or available through an authentication or password manager app. This extra step ensures that even if someone gets your password, they won’t be able to log in without the code from your trusted device or account.
Every time you log in to Sevalla, you’ll be prompted for a six-digit verification code either by email or through an authenticator app. If you’re using an authenticator app, open it, find the 2FA code, enter it into the 6-digit verification code field, and press Login. If you’re using a password manager like 1Password, the code should be automatically placed in your clipboard so that you can paste it in after the first login page.
If you trust the device you’re using and select Don’t ask for a code on this device, you won’t need to enter an authentication code for 30 days, as long as you continue logging in with the same browser and IP address. After 30 days, we’ll prompt you for a code again to help keep your account secure.
2FA authentication when you log in to Sevalla.
When you create your Sevalla account and log in for the first time, email is used as the default authentication method. A one-time verification code will be sent to your email address; simply enter this code in Sevalla and click Verify to continue. Each code can only be used once and is valid for 30 minutes. If a code is entered incorrectly ten times in a row, it will be reset.
If you don’t receive the email, check your spam or junk folder. After 30 seconds, you’ll have the option to click Request a new code to receive another one. If you’re still having issues after requesting a new code, contact our Support Team.
If you would prefer to use an app to authenticate your login, you can enable App authentication.

You will then be prompted to scan a QR code with an authenticator app. If you’re using a password manager like 1Password or LastPass, we recommend using the built-in 2FA feature in those apps. Otherwise, you can use an app on your mobile device, such as Google Authenticator. If you have any issues scanning the QR code, you can enter the 16-digit code under the QR code.
