What is step-up authentication in Keyra flows?
Last reviewed 5 Sept 2026 · Review due 5 Mar 2027
Short answer
Step-up authentication requests a stronger proof for higher-risk actions after an initial login. Hardware-verified SIM, eSIM or iSIM checks and transaction-bound approval can serve as step-up factors when enabled by publisher policy. Availability depends on the integration contract and the user’s device eligibility.
