1. What is One-Tap Login?

2. How It Works: The User’s Journey
The magic of One-Tap Login lies in its simplicity. Here’s a typical user journey:1
First Interaction: Creating a Passkey
A user signs up or logs in for the first time. During this process, they are prompted to create a passkey, which securely links their account to their device. Our Passkey Intelligence engine notes that this user now has a passkey on this device.
2
The Return: One-Tap Login Appears
When the user returns to your app, our system recognizes them. Instead of a blank login form, they are greeted with a personalized button, like “Login with Passkey as alice@example.com”.

Instant Access: The Tap
The user simply taps the button, verifies their identity with their device’s built-in biometrics (like Face ID or fingerprint), and they’re in! No typing, no forgotten passwords, just instant access.
3. Key Benefits of One-Tap Login
Implementing One-Tap Login offers significant advantages for both your users and your business.- Drastically Improved User Experience: By removing the friction of typing credentials, you make logging in effortless and fast, leading to happier users.
- Increased Conversion and Retention: A smoother login process reduces drop-offs and encourages users to return more often.
- Enhanced Security: One-Tap Login is built on the foundation of passkeys, which are phishing-resistant and far more secure than passwords.
- Boosted Passkey Adoption: Highlighting the passkey option as the easiest path to login encourages more users to adopt this secure technology.
4. Smart Handling of Multiple Scenarios
Corbado’s One-Tap Login is designed to be intelligent and handle various situations gracefully:- Multiple Accounts: If a user has more than one account, the One-Tap button will default to the last one used, with an easy option to switch.
- New Devices: On a new device, the user will go through the standard login flow once. After their first passkey use on that device, One-Tap Login will be available for all future visits.
- Seamless Fallbacks: One-Tap Login is powered by our Passkey Intelligence engine, which ensures that if a passkey isn’t available, the user is seamlessly guided to another authentication method without any confusion.
