What is a passkey?

Updated by SINGPASS

A passkey is a unique digital key created on your device, protected by your biometrics or passcode. It never leaves your device, so only you can use it to log in. Create a passkey to protect yourself from phishing scams.

How does passkey work on Singpass?

When you set up your passkey, two security keys are created - a public key stored by Singpass and a unique digital key that stays securely on your device. When you log in using your passkey, Singpass checks that these two keys match.
