Passkey Pledge

The FIDO Alliance invites organizations around the world to take the Passkey Pledge, a voluntary commitment to increase awareness and adoption of passkey sign-ins to make the web safer and more accessible.

Companies can take the pledge ahead of World Passkey Day (formerly World Password Day) on May 1, 2025 and commit to making a good-faith effort to further accelerate global movement away from passwords.

Participating companies will receive assets to support their involvement and will have the opportunity to take part in activities and announcements planned for World Passkey Day.
