Passwords suck. The more you have, the more frustrating it is to remember them all, and with how frequently we’re supposed to be updating them, that’s a situation that only gets worse over time. That’s bad enough when they’re protecting our social accounts, but our concerns are immediately amplified when passwords are all that stand between bad actors and our money.

Passkey login support for PayPal is first arriving for Apple devices, making its way to iPhone, iPad, and Mac users on the PayPal website. The company hasn’t offered a formal ETA for when we can expect the feature on Android, but it hopefully shouldn’t be long, with the underlying software support in place.
International support for PayPal passkey authentication should begin arriving sometime in 2023.
