Bring on your first team member

An invite code, a role, and a clock-in, how to give someone register access without giving them your whole business.

4 min readUpdated 2026-07-19
Before you start: The person's phone with the Tavvi app installed, and two minutes of your time. No paperwork inside the app, employment paperwork is between you two.

How joining works

You don't create accounts for your people, they have their own Tavvi account, and you link it to your business with an invitation code. That keeps their login theirs (you never handle their password) and your business yours (you control what the link lets them do).

Send the invite

  1. On the business side, open your team section and choose Invite Your First Team Member.

  2. Pick their role. Roles decide what they can and can't do, a barista doesn't need refund rights on day one. You can see and change per-role permissions (things like Process Refunds) whenever.

  3. You get an Invitation Code, a short code. Text it to them, show them your screen, whatever's easiest.

What they do (30 seconds on their phone)

  1. Install Tavvi and sign up as themselves, normal account, nothing special.

  2. In their account area, they join your workplace by entering the code.

  3. From there, your business shows up on their app, scoped to whatever their role allows.
