With BankID integrated on your website, you can identify your customers and administrators with a proven solution that is secure for both you and your customers.
Make your website secure
BankID is an electronic ID document equivalent to driving licences, passports and other IDs, enabling businesses, banks, government agencies and organisations to identify and contract with individuals over the internet. With 8 million users and over 6 billion uses every year, BankID is by far the most used e-ID in Sweden and will give your website a seal of security your customers trust.
BankID for administrators
With BankID for WordPress and WooCommerce, you can give your administrators an alternative to the regular WordPress admin login and let them log in with their BankID instead. If you want an extra layer of security, you can also choose to completely switch off the regular login and only let your admins log in with BankID. This way, you can be absolutely sure that only the people you have chosen have access to the admin panel.
BankID for customers
If you sell age-restricted items, offer healthcare services or your customers can enter into contracts on your website, BankID is a tried and tested solution that most of your customers already use. There are many possibilities and you can, for example, use BankID to manage payment, customer login and age checks.
Payment
With BankID for WooCommerce, you can choose that certain payment methods, when the amount exceeds a certain sum, require a BankID signature. If you invoice your customers yourself, this is a peace of mind and you can be sure that the invoice goes to the right person.
Customer login
Many customers want to be able to log in to their account to track their orders, but don’t want to have to remember another username and password. Now you can let your customers choose whether they want to log in with a username or BankID.
Age verification
With BankID integrated into your e-commerce, you can choose to age-proof some of your items. The customer will then have to confirm their age through a BankID signature before the purchase can be finalised.
Security at a price
BankID will make your website more secure and is sometimes essential depending on your business, but it comes at an extra cost to you and an extra step for your customers. BankID charges for each signature and if you have a lot of customers and a low profit margin, it can quickly become a costly affair. Many e-retailers also find that conversion decreases when BankID is a requirement and should therefore not be used if it is not necessary.
