BankID with biometrics does not support being displayed within an iFrame. The reason for this is that it's more challenging to guarantee security within an iFrame. BankID OIDC is also phasing out iFrame support. We recommend opening BankID using redirects or by opening a new window.
End-users who can use BankID with biometrics (face, finger, or PIN) have enabled this option within the app. Currently, only end-users with the BankID app can use BankID with biometrics.
BankID with biometrics is approved for payments and meets the requirements for Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) according to PSD2 and 3D Secure. The service is at the "Substantial" level according to the eIDAS standard. This means that the service can be used for most purposes.
If you intend to electronically sign a document, you cannot use BankID with biometrics.
However, if you have selected signing to view information, such as the amount and recipient for a payment, and require a level of assurance of "Substantial," then BankID with biometrics is a good choice.
BankID with biometrics uses the built-in biometrics on the phone or computer, also known as WebAuthn. BankID never has access to biometric data but receives a signed confirmation from Apple and Google that the user has authenticated themselves using biometrics.
