SuperTokens Features
This feature provides a frictionless login experience by sending a time-bound, unique link directly to the user's email instead of requiring a password. SuperTokens features a secure implementation of this flow, simplifying user onboarding and authentication, making logins easier and removing password management issues for end users.
The platform includes a robust security suite that actively detects and mitigates common authentication threats. Key capabilities include Captcha protection to stop brute-force attacks and user banning functionalities, securing login forms and providing administrators control over malicious user accounts and activity.
SuperTokens enables users to sign in securely across multiple services using a single set of credentials. It fully supports enterprise protocols such as SAML 2.0 and OAuth 2.0, providing seamless authentication integration with identity providers like Microsoft Entra ID and Okta for business customers.
This function allows organizations to manage multiple separate tenants or customer organizations from a single SuperTokens instance. It is ideal for B2B SaaS applications, facilitating tenant isolation, separate configurations, streamlined organizational management and user authentication.
The platform offers flexible mechanisms to link multiple login methods—such as social, email/password, and passwordless accounts—to a single user identity. This consolidation ensures seamless user experience, simplifies user data management, and eliminates user confusion across various login methods.
