Onboard partners and suppliers

Seamless retail from start to finish. Build agility and enhanced security into your partnerships and supply chain, with speedy onboarding and secure cloud-based portals.

In today’s volatile climate, being able to quickly switch between suppliers has never been more critical for delivering seamless retail experiences. But onboarding can be slow, hampered by access problems, and security a perennial concern – with data breaches often the result of a weak link in the supply chain.

Okta’s identity solutions speed up the onboarding and deprovisioning of your suppliers, partners and franchisees, with a cloud-based portal for seamless connection and collaboration, and a rigorous identity layer as a secure front door.
