Passport vault: never type passport details again

Store once, use with every booking – and nobody but you can read the data.

In short

How do I store passport details securely to reuse them for bookings?

In the wemake.holiday passport vault you save yourself and your fellow travellers with name, date of birth, nationality, passport number and expiry date – typed in or via ID scan. Encryption happens in your browser with AES-256; the server only holds gibberish. You open it with your vault password or a passkey, and it locks itself automatically after 45 minutes.

The problem

The same details with every flight booking: passport number, expiry date, date of birth – for every person travelling. Typed out from photos on your phone that aren’t stored securely anywhere.

  • Typing in passport details for the whole family again and again
  • Photos of passports in your gallery, cloud and chats
  • Transposed digits that come to light at check-in

The solution

The vault is end-to-end encrypted: only you have the key – not even wemake.holiday can read your ID details.

  • Several travellers, several IDs per person
  • Encryption in the browser (AES-256-GCM), the server only sees ciphertext
  • Open with your vault password or a passkey (Face ID, Touch ID, Windows Hello)
  • Locks automatically on reload and 45 minutes after unlocking
  • At flight checkout: select travellers or “Fill in all matching”
  • After an ID scan: “Save in your passport vault?”

Frequently asked questions about Passport vault

Can wemake.holiday read my passport details?

No. Encryption happens in your browser; the server only holds ciphertext that only your password or passkey can open.

What happens if I forget my vault password?

Then the vault can’t be recovered, only deleted – that’s the flip side of true end-to-end encryption.

How long does the vault stay open?

Until you reload the page, at most 45 minutes after unlocking.
