BankID

The app is designed to meet official security requirements and provide a convenient way to access various public services and banks. It offers the ability to log in to these services, sign binding documents electronically, and confirm online payments. This eliminates the need for one-time passwords or using BankID on a mobile device, as all requests can be approved directly within the app. The app works by using your social security number and personal password in conjunction with a BankID certificate issued by a bank.

In order to use the app, you must have a BankID certificate issued by a bank. Currently, only individuals with BankID from certain banks are able to activate the BankID app. To check if your BankID is supported, you can visit bankid.no/privat. This ensures that the app is only accessible to those with a valid BankID, adding an extra layer of security.

The app offers a more convenient and secure way to access public services and banks. Instead of having to use a separate code device or BankID on a mobile device, all requests can be approved directly within the app. This streamlines the process and eliminates the need for multiple devices or methods of verification.

In addition to logging in to public services and banks, the app also allows for the electronic signing of binding documents. This feature is especially useful for those who frequently need to sign important documents, as it eliminates the need for physical signatures and allows for a more efficient and secure process.

The app is constantly updating and adding support for more banks, ensuring that more individuals will be able to take advantage of its convenient and secure features. By using the BankID app, users can have peace of mind knowing that their personal information and transactions are protected by official security requirements and the use of a BankID certificate.
