According to Gigya, Facebook held steady in Q4 and holds 51% of all social logins worldwide with a 51% marketshare. Google+ obtained the silver with a 28% share (up 2% from Q3):
Facebook continues to dominate the mobile login space as well with 63% of the marketshare. Google+ jumped a full 5 percentage points from Q3 to Q4 and is now up to a quarter of the overall marketshare.
