CYBERSPACE — Gataca.io, a Spain-based leading digital identity and age verification provider, is introducing its advanced passkey integration, enabling users to access age-restricted services using a passcode securely stored on their device.
The passkey technology integration follows Gataca’s recent focus on the entertainment sector, where government-mandated age-verification requirements are being rolled out across many EU countries and several U.S. states.
The new technology aims to simplify and streamline the user’s age verification process, enabling the broader public to seamlessly access otherwise age-restricted services and content.
With passkey integration, a user’s verification result—whether obtained through an ID wallet or facial age-estimation technology—can be securely saved to their device. Users can then re-access services instantly at any time by using their device’s fingerprint or PIN.
After a user’s age is verified, a device-bound passkey is generated and tied to their identity. This passkey is securely stored on the device. When accessing an age-restricted service from that device, the user simply selects “Log in with passkey” and authenticates using their device’s biometrics or PIN.
“At Gataca, we believe that a seamless user experience is essential to maintaining optimal conversion and retention rates for websites and services with age-restricted content,” says Peter Medvedik, Global Director for Strategic Partnerships at Gataca.
“Today, we can confidently say that Gataca’s facial age-estimation technology accuracy and light-speed algorithm set a new industry standard.”
