The problem

Passwords and OTPs are a liability you're paying for.

OTPs are slow and they fail

SMS codes take 20–45 seconds and drop on weak networks, roaming and SIM-swaps.

Shared secrets get stolen

Passwords and OTPs are phishable, replayable and leak in breaches; account-takeover fraud follows the shared secret.

Friction kills conversion

Every extra step at login and checkout drives abandonment.

SMS OTP is a running cost

You pay per message, forever, plus the fraud and support load.

What is a passkey

A credential that can't be phished, because it's never shared.

A passkey is a cryptographic key pair bound to the customer's device. The private key never leaves the device and is never shared — so there is nothing on your server for an attacker to steal, phish or replay.

Nothing to steal.

Your server keeps only a public key. A breach yields nothing an attacker can reuse.

Use cases

Where passkeys pay off for banks & fintechs.

One enrolled credential, applied across the journeys where friction and fraud cost you the most.

Frictionless card payments (3-D Secure)

Replace the OTP step-up at online checkout with a device biometric. Authentication drops from 20–45s to 3–8s, lifting completed payments.

In the real world

Visa and Mastercard payment passkeys are already live across major markets and leading merchants worldwide.

Passwordless mobile & net-banking login

Let customers open the banking app with a face or fingerprint instead of a password.

In the real world

Revolut and Ubank run passkey login; ABANCA has 42% of mobile customers authorising with passkeys.

High-value transfers & step-up

Require a fresh passkey signature for wires and risky actions; Secure Payment Confirmation binds the exact amount and payee into the cryptographic approval.

In the real world

Used for step-up on money movement and privileged actions.

Recurring payments & e-mandates

Authorise mandates and subscriptions without OTP friction or delivery failures.

Bill & recurring payments

One credential to authorise bill, utility and subscription payments — no SMS OTP. (BBPS in India.)

Secure digital onboarding

Enrol a passkey during signup so accounts are phishing-resistant from day one.

In the real world

Fintechs use WebAuthn biometric onboarding for cross-device portability without re-registration.

Workforce & staff login

Passwordless login for employees and branch staff cuts risk and support load.

In the real world

Financial firms report helpdesk password resets down ~75% after moving staff to passkeys.

How a scheme passkey checkout works

Visa Payment Passkey

  1. 1

    Cardholder enrols once inside the issuer's app or website (identity verified at login), binding a passkey to their device.

  2. 2

    At a participating merchant, the cardholder is taken into passkey authentication.

  3. 3

    They approve with the same Face ID / fingerprint they use to unlock the device.

  4. 4

    Cryptographic proof authorises the payment — biometrics never leave the device.

Mastercard Payment Passkey (with Click to Pay)

  1. 1

    At checkout the customer selects their card (Click to Pay, card-on-file, or guest).

  2. 2

    Instead of CVV or OTP, they're prompted for their passkey.

  3. 3

    A WebAuthn biometric prompt confirms the transaction — either on-site via Secure Payment Confirmation (SPC) or via a quick redirect.

  4. 4

    The tokenised payment completes.

The regulatory moment

The timing is now.

Regulators are moving beyond OTP

Central banks and regulators across South Asia and the Middle East are increasingly encouraging a move beyond static SMS OTP toward stronger, device-based authentication.

Schemes are already live

Visa and Mastercard are already live on payment passkeys in multiple markets; regional and domestic card schemes are following on FIDO.

The direction is set

The global card networks have set the direction — device-based authentication is where payments are heading.

Moving off OTP-only is no longer optional — the question is who helps you do it.

Track record

Proven internationally.

Live in Australia

ISG's payment switch routes live EFTPOS scheme transactions for a major Australian bank.

Across the Middle East & South Asia

Payment technology delivered for banks across these markets, with local regulatory familiarity.

Standards-native

Native ISO 8583 and AS 2805, FIDO2 / WebAuthn, EMV 3DS.

Why ISG

One passkey. Every rail you run.

A software-only auth vendor can secure a login. ISG owns the rails — so the same credential carries through issuing, acquiring, switching, bill pay and loyalty.

Already in your transaction flow

ISG already runs the issuer switch, acquiring switch, 3-D Secure ACS and tokenisation for banks. Passkey is an attach to rails you already operate — not another vendor to bolt on. One enrolled passkey works across cards, app, mandates, bill pay and loyalty.

Recognised TSP for Visa & Mastercard

Technology Service Provider status with scheme tokenization in production across Visa, Mastercard and regional/domestic card schemes (including RuPay in India).

3DS Server, ACS and fraud management

3-D Secure Server / Access Control (ACS) and FRM / e-FRM fraud risk management.

Bank-grade cryptography and protocols

FIPS 140-2 Level 3 HSM cryptography; native ISO 8583 & AS 2805; FIDO2 / WebAuthn; EMV 3DS.

Certified today

Certified today: PCI DSS, PCI SSF, ISO 27001, ISO 27701 — already held, not a roadmap.

Proven internationally

Deployed for banks across the Middle East, South Asia and Australia.

Deploys onto your existing estate

Including the ACS/3DS you may already run — with a ready SDK and fast integration.

Deployment & data residency

Run it where your regulator needs it.

Flexible deployment

SaaS, private cloud, or fully on-premise. For banks that cannot move sensitive authentication to public SaaS.

Data residency & sovereignty

In-region hosting and data residency controls to meet local regulatory requirements.

In-market delivery

Local implementation, customisation and support across the Middle East, South Asia and Australia; Arabic / RTL and local-language readiness for customer-facing screens.
