Stop sharing passwords with your agency

Last updated: August 2026

Sharing a login with an agency triggers 2FA problems, account lockouts and data-breach liability — and violates most platforms' terms. Every major platform has an official access method that avoids it.

The playbook

  1. Never send passwords over email, Slack or WhatsApp.
  2. Use partner access (Meta, Google, TikTok) or user access (Klaviyo, WordPress, HubSpot).
  3. Grant the minimum role the work requires.
  4. Keep a record of who has access.
  5. Remove access the moment it's no longer needed.

The shortcut

HandItSafe was built for exactly this. One link requests the access you need through each platform's official process, your client keeps a panel to see and remove it, and every change is logged — so onboarding is fast and offboarding is clean.
