WooCommerce Biometric Login is a secure and convenient plugin that lets customers sign in with biometric authentication via WebAuthn, fingerprint, or facial recognition.

Description

WooCommerce Biometric Login is a WooCommerce plugin that lets customers sign in using biometric authentication through WebAuthn, such as fingerprint or facial recognition. It solves a common login problem: password-based sign-ins can be harder to manage and easier to compromise through leaked credentials. By moving authentication to device-supported biometrics, it adds an extra security layer while keeping the sign-in process fast and convenient. The plugin integrates with your existing WooCommerce customer account flow and fits well alongside WordPress and Elementor-built pages. It’s designed to be scalable for different store sizes, with setup guided by WebAuthn-capable browser and operating system support.

Main Features

  • WebAuthn-based login — Uses WebAuthn to authenticate users without relying on traditional password entry.
  • Biometric authentication support — Enables sign-in with fingerprint and facial recognition when available on the user’s device.
  • Password replacement for authentication — Shifts the verification step away from password-based methods to reduce exposure from compromised credentials.
  • Multiple authenticator types — Works with common WebAuthn authenticators, including U2F-style USB authenticators and Windows Hello compatible cameras.
  • Faster, friction-reduced sign-ins — Streamlines customer login by using quick device-based verification.
  • Extra protection for customer accounts — Adds a second layer of identity verification to improve account safety in real-world scenarios.
