Benefits of FIDO Alliance Membership

There are significant benefits to taking part in FIDO Alliance as a member, whether your company is a vendor looking to bring FIDO-based solutions to market, or if your organization is a service provider seeking to understand the most effective ways to deploy FIDO Authentication to your customers and/or employees.  Benefits vary according to membership level, but core value propositions include:

Access and influence on FIDO’s specifications: By taking part in FIDO’s technical working groups, members have the ability to shape and have early visibility into FIDO’s technical output – which can help accelerate product and service development.

Establish best practices for deployment of FIDO Authentication: FIDO’s Deployment Working Groups are tasked with addressing common challenges facing enterprises and relying parties that are bringing FIDO Authentication to 3.5B+ end users around the world. Taking part in these working groups will enable your team to get peer-based feedback to aid with your own implementations, while also creating an opportunity to have your company’s vision reflected in deployment guidelines and recommendations.

Take part in global policy and market development activities: FIDO is actively working to educate and engage the global marketplace on the benefits of FIDO Authentication, including the opportunity for FIDO Certified vendors to take part in leading events at discounted rates as well as targeted FIDO seminars that reach early adopters around the world. Additionally, FIDO’s regional working groups in Europe, Japan, Korea, China, and India are driving government, policy and industry engagement at the local level — helping influence both the way that FIDO’s outputs are shaped, as well as impacting change in regional regulatory policies (such as PSD2 in Europe).

Discount on FIDO Certification: Enterprises around the world are requiring FIDO Certified solutions as part of their RFPs. FIDO members receive a discount for certification testing and trademark usage.

^ Associate dues are $2,750 for organizations with 100 or fewer employees and $16,500 for organizations with 101 or more employees.
* Annual dues as of January 2023. Fee structure subject to change without prior written notice at the discretion of the FIDO Alliance.

Take advantage of member-only co-marketing opportunities: As the world continues to move to FIDO standards for user authentication, the Alliance is dedicated to fostering and promoting a vibrant, global ecosystem by providing a variety of supportive marketing programs for its members.
