Simple

Confirmations are our lightweight option for you who don’t need to sign documents.

User-friendly

The user sees the text directly in the BankID app and approves it using biometrics and a single tap.

Custom

The texts can be customized entirely to your needs – up to a limit of 250 characters.

A lightweight alternative to BankID Signing

Document signing isn’t suitable for everyone. With Approval you can send short messages to the user, and you get the text, the user, the time, and the approval all linked together. This is secure enough in many situations and doesn’t require archiving, distribution tools, or document management.

With Approval, the user sees messages of up to 250 characters directly in the BankID app, which can be accepted or rejected on the spot.

Verifiable, but not a real signature

BankID Approval is verifiable in the sense that you can see that the user has approved the specific text, but it is not a true signature in terms of regulations. If you need fully verifiable electronic signatures, we recommend BankID Signing.

More about signing
