Case Study: MoneyFarm achieves faster, more secure microservices authentication with Auth0

Why Moneyfarm Chose Auth0 for Its Transition to Microservices

MoneyFarm, a pan-European digital wealth manager serving over 50,000 active investors, needed to move from a monolithic application to microservices while improving authentication for its website and mobile apps. As a financial services company handling sensitive data, it wanted a more secure, scalable solution without diverting developer time to building authentication in-house, and it chose Auth0 to replace that burden.

Auth0 implemented seamless authentication migration using its custom database feature, SDKs, documentation, and later MFA and brute-force protection. MoneyFarm says the mobile rollout took only a couple of days and an MFA prototype was built in a couple of hours, while support handling for locked-out users dropped from minutes to seconds. By using Auth0, MoneyFarm freed its roughly 30 developers to focus on core product work and enabled new initiatives such as PSD2 integration and partner authentication.
