User Onboarding & Sign-Up
Streamline new account sign-up with passkey-first enrolment while filtering out fraudulent registrations early.
The challenge
Sign-up is often the first friction point new customers experience, yet it is also a common entry point for fraudulent bulk account creation. Organisations need a registration flow that is quick for genuine users while still applying enough verification to deter automated or fraudulent sign-ups before they enter the system.
Key capabilities in this use case
Passkey-first registration
Prompt new users to create a passkey at sign-up rather than setting a password, reducing later credential risk.
Verification at registration
Confirm phone number or device ownership during sign-up using OTP or push before the account is activated.
Bot and automation resistance
Apply rules that detect sign-up patterns consistent with scripted or bulk account creation.
Frictionless returning-device recognition
Recognise a previously verified device to speed up onboarding for repeat sign-ups from the same household or organisation.
Core capabilities
Passkey enrolment at sign-up
Registers a passkey as part of the onboarding flow.
Phone and device verification
Confirms ownership before account activation.
Sign-up risk rules
Flags patterns typical of automated registration abuse.
Pre-built onboarding UI
Ready components for the registration screen.
Screening sign-ups without slowing genuine customers
An online marketplace wants to speed up new account creation while reducing the volume of fraudulent seller accounts being registered in bulk. It integrates Authsignal into its sign-up flow so new users create a passkey instead of a password, and phone ownership is verified with a one-time code before the account goes live. The rules engine is configured to flag sign-ups that share device fingerprints or arrive in unusual bursts, routing them to manual review rather than instant activation. Genuine customers complete sign-up in under a minute, while suspicious registrations are held back for closer inspection.
