I wonder if that was a mistake they've since fixed. When I click on USA/gift/Digital-only it just shows up as $10 USD total for me.

just did it again and you're right it came out as $10 this time, thanks.

FYI, offer is still active. This looks to be the cheapest way one can get a security key. I do wonder what the advantage is of getting the much more expensive Yubikeys, like the Neo. Looking at the Yubikey comparison page, there doesn't seem to be any obvious advantages to paying more for the other ones.

It shows in the chart - NFC for mobile communication. Basically, instead of plugging it into your phone, you tap it against your phone to send the key. Then you don't have to worry about it having microUSB or USB-C. The higher price for the others is just the difference in form factors and connection type I believe.

Cool that the deal is still going. Going to change the headline so it reads $10 :)
