Wagemaster
- Wagemaster supports secure email sending via two main methods: Gmail (SMTP) and Microsoft Exchange/Office 365 (OAuth 2.0).
- These methods avoid using your main email password in third-party apps, reducing security risks.
- In order to get the set-up right, please make sure you have installed the latest version of Wagemaster on all computers you do payroll on.
