Authentication Methods

Stash provides two methods for authenticating players in your webshop. You can implement one or both methods based on your setup.

Both methods share similar initial configuration steps, but each method has a different integration process.

Direct Sign in (SSO)

Players authenticate directly in the webshop using SSO providers such as Google, Apple, or Facebook.

You configure the providers in Stash Studio by adding their credentials. Players click Sign in, select a provider, and complete authentication in the browser.

Account Linking

With account linking, players authenticate by launching your game through a deep link on mobile or by scanning a QR code on desktop.

The deep link passes a session code to the game client. The client attaches the player’s authentication data to the session code and sends both to Stash.

This method enables passwordless login by reusing the player’s existing game session.
