At 1Password, we created and manage a passkeys directory, which keeps a running list of which websites, apps, and services offer signing in with passkeys, as well as an interactive element where users can vote for the businesses they want to see rollout passkey support-a useful resource to track ongoing adoption.

Trusted developer tools that make it easy to implement passkey authentication into websites, apps, and services as logins will also be critical in getting more businesses to come around to passkeys.

Ultimately, we'll need to accelerate adoption by sharing back statistics around how passkeys improve key business metrics like usage and sales, as well as user preference.

Fintech and banking services gain a two-pronged, unique advantage by adopting passwordless authentication: the proven security of public key cryptography upon which passkeys are built on, and for their end users, a sign-in experience that's simple and familiar.

Passkeys eliminate the friction associated with legacy sign-in methods, whether that's passwords, 2FA or MFA, all while providing stronger security protection.

Passkeys are a transformational step forward in authentication and security-they're even bigger than FaceID and biometrics-and I think that passkeys' incredible win-win-win of security, efficiency, and improved business results mean they'll become our default sign-in option in the next few years.
