Challenge 01

Two-sided trust. Both buyers and sellers need identity assurance without friction that kills conversion.

Challenge 02

Loyalty points are money without chargeback protection. ATO on a points balance is cash gone.

Challenge 03

Millions of logins per day. Authentication cost and performance matter at marketplace scale.

Challenge 04

Global user bases need flexible authentication. WhatsApp OTP for reach, passkeys for security, SMS as fallback.

PSD2/SCA and consumer data protection are raising the bar for marketplace authentication.

  • PSD2/SCA for European payment flows
  • Consumer data protection (GDPR, CCPA, NZ Privacy Act)
  • Online Safety Act age verification (UK)

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Authsignal replace our existing platform or IdP?

Most customers start by adding Authsignal on top of their existing identity stack. Your platform architecture stays intact, with no migration required.

Some customers discover over time that Authsignal handles enough of their authentication needs that a separate IdP is no longer necessary. Either way, the architecture is the same.

How does Authsignal protect loyalty points?

Risk-based step-up authentication triggers at redemption, point transfers, and account changes. Legitimate members flow through, suspicious actions get challenged.

What authentication methods are supported?

Passkeys (FIDO2/WebAuthn), biometrics, SMS OTP, email OTP, WhatsApp OTP, push notifications, authenticator apps (TOTP), and magic links. All methods are available from a single integration and managed via the no-code rules engine.

How long does deployment take for financial services?

Most financial services customers are live within 3 to 6 weeks. Authsignal's pre-built UI components, SDKs, and no-code rules engine mean deployment is configuration, not custom development.

Can Authsignal handle millions of daily logins?

Yes. Authsignal processes over 12M authentication events per month and is built for marketplace scale.
