About
OwnID enables websites and apps to easily add passwordless authentication to their existing registration and login forms, providing end users with the option to authenticate with their phone biometrics regardless of which device they are browsing with. OwnID is currently used by large corporations including Bayer and Nestl, who have reported significant increases in registrations and logins. Its frictionless multifactor authentication is more secure than password-based methods and features easy integration.
