What’s BankID and should I use it for B2B Magento auth?

BankID is the Swedish digital-ID standard — 99% of Swedes have it, and it’s issued by their bank. It’s used to log in to government services, sign contracts, file taxes, and authenticate identity. For Magento B2B, BankID is a massive trust accelerator:

• Login — replace passwords with BankID auth for company-portal access. Zero forgotten-password tickets.
• Contract signing — legally binding e-signatures for trade-account onboarding, credit limits, NDAs.
• KYC / identity verification — verify the buyer is a real person from a real Swedish company, instantly.

We integrate BankID via providers like Signicat, Scrive, or Criipto wired into Magento’s customer table and Adobe Commerce’s B2B module. Yes — if you sell B2B in Sweden, BankID auth is increasingly expected.
