Custom Token Claims

Embed application-specific data directly into JWT tokens, reducing API calls while optimizing client-side application performance.

Custom Claims

Add custom claims to JWT tokens using WordPress filters

functions.php
add_filter('jwt_auth_token_before_sign', function($token, $user) {
    $token['customer_type'] = get_user_meta($user->ID, 'customer_type', true);
    $token['loyalty_points'] = get_user_meta($user->ID, 'loyalty_points', true);
    $token['preferred_currency'] = get_user_meta($user->ID, 'currency', true);
    $token['customer_id'] = get_user_meta($user->ID, 'customer_id', true);
    $token['customer_email'] = get_user_meta($user->ID, 'customer_email', true);
    return $token;
}, 10, 2);
