MojoAuth vs Frontegg: consumer login vs B2B admin portal
Frontegg targets B2B SaaS with a bundled customer-facing admin portal. MojoAuth is passwordless authentication for consumer apps. This comparison covers when each is the right pick.
TL;DR verdict
If you are building consumer login, choose MojoAuth: passkeys, magic links, email, SMS, and WhatsApp OTP (Enterprise), social login, and One Tap behind one API, free up to 25,000 MAU. Frontegg focuses on B2B SaaS: if your enterprise customers' IT admins need a polished admin portal to manage their own users, that is Frontegg's core product.

When to choose MojoAuth
Your users are consumers.
If you sign up shoppers, subscribers, players, or patients rather than enterprise accounts, Frontegg's admin portal is wasted spend. MojoAuth is built around consumer signup and login conversion.
You need more passwordless channels.
MojoAuth ships passkeys, Magic Link, Email OTP, Phone OTP, WhatsApp OTP (Enterprise), Social Login, and One Tap Login behind one API, with SDKs in 22+ languages.
Pricing is a primary factor.
Frontegg's paid plans start at $499/month. MojoAuth is free up to 25,000 MAU, and Business Pro starts at $120/month.
When to choose Frontegg
Your B2B customers manage their own users.
If "our enterprise customers' IT admins log in and manage their employee users, SSO config, audit logs, and roles" is part of your product, Frontegg's bundled portal saves months of engineering work to build the equivalent.
You want a faster path to enterprise feature parity.
Frontegg ships organization-level features (RBAC, SSO config, audit logs, MFA policies) ready to embed. Building the equivalent yourself on any other platform is 3 to 6 months of engineering.
B2B is your dominant pattern.
Frontegg models accounts (your customers' organizations) as first-class primitives, and its product surface is designed around them.

Developer experience
Email OTP with MojoAuth
import { MojoAuth } from "@mojoauth/server-sdk";
const mojo = new MojoAuth({ apiKey: process.env.MOJOAUTH_API_KEY });
await mojo.email.sendOtp({ email: "user@example.com" });
const { user, accessToken } = await mojo.email.verifyOtp({
email: "user@example.com",
otp: req.body.otp,
});
Frontegg admin portal embed (React)
import { AdminPortal } from "@frontegg/react";
export function AccountSettings() {
return <AdminPortal />;
// Renders the full admin portal: users, roles,
// SSO config, audit logs, MFA policy, all bundled.
}
The Frontegg example illustrates the trade-off: a single component renders a full admin portal that would take months to build. The cost is the constrained customization surface and the higher price point.
