Account

If the user has linked an external identity provider (IdP) to their WinkID, the Wink Identity Web SDK may prompt them to complete authentication via that account.

Possible scenarios

  • Corporate login policies require SSO as a second factor.
  • The app enforces account verification on new devices.
  • Facial recognition confidence falls below a configured threshold.

User experience

  • The user is redirected to the configured IdP (e.g., Okta).
  • After successful authentication, the SDK resumes the flow and finalizes the session.
  • This method allows enterprises to combine Wink biometrics with enterprise SSO policies.
