Passwordless authentication for Streaming & OTT Apps

Nobody wants to type a password with a TV remote. Let viewers sign in with a magic link, OTP, One Tap or passkey on their phone - more activated subscribers, fewer reset tickets.

OTT App Authentication

Where passwords fail viewers

Streaming services lose subscribers at the login screen - especially on TVs and shared devices

TV Login

Typing an email and password with a remote is slow and frustrating

Many Devices

Viewers expect to sign in across TVs, phones, tablets and browsers

Forgotten Passwords

Subscribers who can't log in on a new device call support - or cancel

Account Security

Reused passwords make subscriber accounts easy targets for takeover

Signup Drop-off

Every extra step between trailer and first play loses viewers

Household Accounts

Several people in one home signing in on different devices

How MojoAuth works for streaming apps

One API for every passwordless method - pick the ones that get viewers watching fastest

Magic Link & OTP for TV Sign-in

Viewers enter an email or phone number and confirm with a magic link or a short code on their phone - no password typed with a remote.

One Tap & Social Login

Google One Tap plus Google, Apple and Facebook sign-in on mobile and web, so new viewers start a trial in seconds.

Passkeys

Returning viewers sign in with Face ID or a fingerprint on their phone, tablet or laptop. Phishing-resistant by default.

Step-up for Account Changes

Ask for an OTP before email changes, plan upgrades or payment updates to protect subscriber accounts.
