If you log in to your Clover Dashboard to make adjustments to confidential account information or you work on a shared computer, you may want to ask for proof that it’s really you signing in. You can enable two-factor authentication in Clover, which means that in addition to your usual login details, you may be asked to input a security number sent to your phone.
To reiterate, Clover will never ask you to submit your passcode via email or make a monetary transaction with a third party. Communicate quickly if you receive an email from someone requesting money or offering to take payment.
How To Protect Your Clover Account?
Here are some broad recommendations for maintaining your internet security:
- Sign in safely at all times: See if there’s a “https” at the start of the URL. This means all communications between your machine and Clover are secured. In addition to the padlock symbol next to the URL, some computers also display a green or yellow security badge.
- A browser’s built-in security features can help prevent malicious attacks. Many online platforms have built-in security features that will warn you if you try to access an insecure website.
- You should use an ad blocker and anti-virus program. Invest in reputable anti-virus and pop-up blocking software. Always keep your security software up to current and check for viruses and malware on a regular basis.
- Don’t blindly rely on links or obtain attachments unless you know and believe the sender and the content.
- In particular if you share your account with others, you should always check out when you are finished using it. If you neglect to physically check out, you can do so from a distance.
- Don’t use the same passcode for your account that you use for things like email, banking, or social media. It’s crucial to safeguard your Clover password in the event that any of your other online accounts are breached.
