Passkey Sign-In Option

The new Passkey feature in ReservationKey allows you to log in securely without needing to enter a password or use multi-factor authentication (MFA). This makes signing in faster, easier, and even more secure by using the built-in authentication of your device, such as Face ID, Touch ID, or a PIN.

Overview

Passkeys are a modern, passwordless login method that replaces traditional credentials with device-based authentication. Once a passkey is set up, you can log in with a single tap or biometric scan instead of typing your password or entering verification codes.

Logging In with a Passkey

Once you’ve created a passkey, using it to log in is simple:

1. Go to the ReservationKey login page.
2. Enter your Username.
3. Click the new Use Passkey button.
4. Authenticate using your device method (PIN, fingerprint, or Face ID).
5. You’ll be logged in automatically — no password or email code required.

If you have not yet created a passkey, follow the steps below to set one up first.

Setting Up Your Passkey

To create a passkey for your user account:

1. Log in to ReservationKey as you normally would using your username and password.
2. Go to Settings ? Users.
3. Click Edit next to your user account.
4. Find the Passkey section and click Add Passkey.
5. Your device will prompt you to authenticate using one of the following:
   • Enter your computer’s or phone’s PIN.
   • Use Face ID or Fingerprint recognition.
6. Once verified, your passkey is saved securely to your device.

That’s it — you’ve now registered your device to log in using a passkey instead of a password.

Using Multiple Devices

You can add multiple passkeys for different devices (for example, your laptop and your phone):

• Each device has its own secure, unique passkey.
• Repeat the setup process on each device where you want to enable passkey login.

Signing In with Your New Passkey

Once your passkey is set up:

1. Log out of ReservationKey.
2. Return to the login page and enter your username.
3. Click Use Passkey.
4. Authenticate using your device’s built-in security method (PIN, fingerprint, or Face ID).
5. After a brief moment, you’ll be signed in automatically.

Security Notes

• Passkeys are stored securely in your device’s trusted hardware (such as Windows Hello, Apple Keychain, or Android’s security enclave).
• No password or secret information is stored on ReservationKey’s servers.
• This method is resistant to phishing and password reuse attacks.

Benefits of Using Passkeys

• Faster Login: No need to type a password or MFA code.
• More Secure: Authentication relies on device-based encryption.
• Convenient: Works seamlessly across supported devices and browsers.
• Private: Your biometric data never leaves your device.

Summary

The new Passkey feature provides a faster and more secure way to sign in to ReservationKey. Once enabled, you can log in instantly using your device’s built-in security (PIN, fingerprint, or Face ID) — eliminating the need for passwords or multi-factor codes. We recommend enabling passkeys on all your commonly used devices for the best experience.
