Convenience Perks
For added convenience, you can be automatically signed in to any Passport affiliated site you visit. To activate the automatic sign-in at all Passport sites, select the "Sign me in automatically on this computer" option at the sign-in page. Remember though, automatically signing in gives every Passport site you visit access to your sign-in profile.
Even if you choose to sign in at every Passport site, you don't have to go through the registration process required at most e-commerce sites. Simply click on the Passport logo at any participating site to log in.
