Corbado Unveils 5-Phase Passkey Playbook to Lift Adoption From 5% to 70-90%

At Identiverse 2026 in Las Vegas, Corbado said the hardest part of passkey rollouts begins after launch, when real users must switch across devices, browsers and authenticators.
The company framed its session around a five-phase playbook designed to move passkey logins from roughly 5% usage to 70-90% adoption by measuring behavior, rolling out gradually and fixing drop-off points.
A public-sector deployment cited in the presentation put passkeys live for more than 5 million users, and VicRoads' Igor Gjorgjioski said mobile passkey activation reached 80% without replacing its identity provider.
Corbado tied that approach to its Observe product, which overlays existing IDP and passkey-server setups to show where logins fail, underscoring a broader push to make passkeys a default rather than a niche feature.
