About JWTs

A JSON Web Token has three parts separated by dots: header, payload and signature. The header and payload are Base64URL-encoded (not encrypted), so anyone can read them โ€” never put secrets in a JWT payload.

Does this verify the signature?

No. This tool only decodes the readable parts. Signature verification requires the secret/public key and should be done server-side.
