From scratch to magic in 10 minutes

See how easy it is to build passkey authentication for your app with Descope.

Why passkeys?

Passkeys are a new way for users to log in to apps without using a password. With passkeys, users can access apps the same way they unlock their devices – using a fingerprint, face scan, or PIN – resulting in a more secure, convenient, and familiar experience.

How passkey authentication helps your app

Choice and flexibility

User-friendly login

Elevate your app’s user experience by logging users in with their facial ID or fingerprints.

Unphishable

Phishing impossible

Public-private key pairs only work with the intended application, nipping any credential phishing attempts in the bud.
