# World Passkey Day 2026: Passkey Benchmark released

## 1. World Passkey Day 2026: Passkey Benchmark released

For World Passkey Day 2026, Corbado has released the [Passkey Benchmark 2026](https://www.corbado.com/passkey-benchmark-2026), a public reference of eight production KPIs that CIAM, IAM and product teams can use to compare their passkey rollout against the 2026 field. The benchmark covers three layers (readiness, creation and usage) and combines them into a passkey login rate via a scenario model. It is published openly at [corbado.com/passkey-benchmark-2026](https://www.corbado.com/passkey-benchmark-2026), with a dedicated detail page per KPI.

## 2. Why this Benchmark exists

Reliable passkey adoption data is still scarce. Most teams land on opaque case studies, vendor decks or single-number headlines. Authentication professionals asked us every week for a number to compare their rollout against. So we packaged what we see across the market into one document and gave it back to the community: more than 100 qualitative interviews with CIAM and identity teams in Q1 2026, normalized data from Corbado consulting and product telemetry across consumer-facing deployments and structured signals from public passkey rollouts.

## 3. Eight KPIs across three Layers

The benchmark is structured along the three levers that move [passkey adoption](https://www.corbado.com/blog/passkey-adoption-business-case). Each KPI has its own detail page in the benchmark.

### 3.1 Readiness

- Web Passkey Readiness
- WebAuthn Client Capabilities

### 3.2 Creation

- Passkey Enrollment Rate
- Conditional Create Rate
- Passkey Provider Market Share

### 3.3 Usage

- Passkey Authentication Success Rate
- Cross-Device Authentication Completion Rate
- Conditional UI Login Completion

A scenario model on the benchmark site shows how these levers compound into the passkey login rate, the operational KPI most authentication teams now report against.

## 4. Scope and Method

Quantitative ranges are normalized from Corbado consulting and product telemetry across large B2C deployments, cross-checked against public rollout signals. The qualitative layer draws on more than 100 interviews with authentication and product teams behind consumer-facing programs in Q1 2026. Workforce and internal-IT identity programs are out of scope.

## 6. About Corbado Research

Corbado is the intelligence platform for modern authentication, starting with passkeys. Corbado Research studies how authentication changes in production: where passkeys work, where adoption stalls and which implementation choices move login outcomes. Enterprise CIAM teams use Corbado to understand why adoption is flat, what is breaking login journeys and how to scale authentication improvements across large user bases.
