# How to boost passkey enrollment?

## What strategies are recommended to boost passkey enrollment and reduce reliance on passwords or OTP logins?

To effectively boost **passkey enrollment** and significantly reduce reliance on passwords
or costly OTP (one-time password) logins, enterprises should implement the following
strategic best practices:

### 1. Post-Login Passkey Prompts

- Immediately prompt users after successful password or OTP login. This method takes
  advantage of users already being engaged in an authentication context, increasing the
  likelihood of enrollment.
- Prompts should clearly emphasize user benefits, such as improved convenience ("Sign in
  faster without passwords") or security ("Protect your account from
  [phishing](https://www.corbado.com/glossary/phishing) attacks").

### 2. Automatic Mobile Prompts

Automatically trigger passkey setup flows on mobile devices, utilizing biometric
identification. Companies such as Amazon and Google found this approach significantly
boosts user adoption (30–50% higher than manual triggers).

### 3. Incremental Enforcement (Phased Transition)

Start [passkey adoption](https://www.corbado.com/blog/passkey-adoption-business-case) voluntarily, but
progressively enforce mandatory passkey usage once users become familiar with the method.
Clearly communicate timelines: "Starting next month, passkeys will replace passwords."

### 4. Cross-Device Enrollment Nudges

After a user enrolls a passkey on one device, proactively prompt enrollment when they log
in on additional devices ("Set up a passkey here to avoid passwords next time"). This
reduces fallback authentications like OTPs.

### 5. Continuous A/B Testing

Rigorously test and refine messaging to find what resonates best across different user
segments, optimizing overall [passkey enrollment](https://www.corbado.com/blog/passkey-creation-best-practices)
rates.

### 6. Analytics-Driven Optimization

Track key metrics such as Passkey Acceptance Rate and Creation Success Rate. Use
data-driven insights to address friction points, enhancing enrollment effectiveness.

Implementing these strategies helps organizations systematically increase **passkey
enrollment**, reducing reliance on outdated passwords and expensive OTP systems.
Enterprises adopting these approaches typically see substantial security improvements,
reduced [authentication friction](https://www.corbado.com/blog/login-friction-kills-conversion), and significant
cost savings.
