Small correction: the offer is good for YubiCo’s Security Key NFC models, not the full YubiKeys products. The difference is the Security Key line is only compatible with FIDO/WebAuthn, while the full YubiKeys support several additional standards. The Security Keys are normally priced at $25 for the USB-A and $29 for the USB-C models, so this is still a significant discount, and this discount still appears to be one of the least expensive WebAuthn compatible keys on the market.
Thanks, Andy!
Are you sure the model is YubiKey 5 series instead of YubiKey Security series?? They are different.
