One vendor means less to keep track of — and less that can go wrong.
One contract instead of two. One audit instead of two. One support case — not several — handled in one place. Fewer handoffs between systems also means fewer places where an identity check can quietly slip through the cracks. Here, simple isn’t just the easy choice — it’s also the safe one.
DORA raises the bar on vendor accountability
The EU’s Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) tightens the requirements on how regulated firms manage and document risk from business-critical IT vendors. Fewer critical vendors isn’t just simpler — it also lowers your overall business risk.
Verification has never mattered more.
Proof of the authenticity of a digital relationship, an access point or a secure profile is under pressure, because AI-generated fraud is widespread and often strikingly convincing. A password only proves someone knows a password. An SMS code only proves someone has access to a phone number. That’s the exact challenge Penneo Verify solves.
eID authentication and login for organizations that take compliance seriously.
Why it matters: Digital fraud — with and without artificial intelligence — is growing, and it breeds both uncertainty and harm. It shows up in every disguise imaginable: a bank email spelled perfectly, a familiar name on an account nobody checked, a voice on the phone that sounds convincing enough, and sometimes a full-blown deepfake — because AI has put the ability to convincingly fake language, logos and video within almost anyone’s reach. What’s needed is a safeguard: knowing who you’re actually dealing with. That’s exactly what Penneo Verify delivers, through a certified, national eID that strengthens the security of every digital exchange.
BankID, Belgian eID and more, so your customers, partners and employees can log in with a verified identity instead of an assumed one — precisely the kind of identity AI-generated fraud is now built to fake.
Built on IN Groupe’s E-Ident platform and delivered through Penneo, Verify comes with a dedicated MerchantID, customizable branding, and the same certified, independently audited infrastructure behind everything Penneo builds. One commercial relationship. Full support from Penneo.
Many eIDs. Many use cases. One integration.
Instead of building and maintaining separate integrations for every national eID — and managing a standalone authentication provider on top of your signing provider — Penneo Verify gives you access to the entire E-Ident eID catalog through a single integration and one commercial relationship.
eID CONSOLIDATION
One integration for all your eID needs.
Whether you need MitID for Danish customers, BankID for Norwegian users, or Belgian eID for your operations in Belgium, you access them all through a single, unified Penneo Verify integration — not a separate build for every country or eID method.
VENDOR CONSOLIDATION
Authentication and signing. One supplier.
Penneo Verify layers eID authentication on top of the commercial relationship you already have — or are already building — with Penneo for signing. One contract, one SLA, one support contact. That makes the work convenient — but more importantly, it lowers your risk.
REGULATORY CONTEXT
DORA makes accountability with a single, consolidated vendor worth more.
DORA requires regulated firms to manage and report on risk from third-party IT vendors far more rigorously. Every business-critical vendor you add is a relationship you have to document and justify. Consolidating authentication and signing with Penneo directly supports that obligation.
eID CONSOLIDATION
Build on the trust infrastructure you already have.
If you’re already using Penneo Sign, Verify is a natural extension — not a new vendor to evaluate and onboard. Your team already knows Penneo. Your legal and procurement teams already have the contracts in place. Adding authentication is, in practice, a configuration task, not a new implementation.
The eIDs your users already know.
Penneo Verify is built on IN Groupe’s E-Ident platform, which provides access to a broad range of national eIDs, including ID Verifier for global coverage beyond national eID schemes.

FAQs
Which eIDs are supported?
Penneo Verify supports a broad range of European national eIDs through IN Groupe’s E-Ident platform — including MitID (Denmark), BankID (Norway and Sweden), Belgian eID, Finnish IDs, AusweisApp (Germany), and more. If you need a specific market or eID method, get in touch and we’ll confirm what’s available for your needs, or read more here.
Is Penneo Verify integrated with Penneo Sign?
Not at the API level — they’re standalone products. But commercially, both are delivered through Penneo, meaning one contract and one support relationship covering both. You can use them independently or as a connected user journey — the integration between them happens at the process level, not forced at the product level.
Which authentication protocols are supported?
Penneo Verify supports two standard authentication protocols via the E-Ident platform. OpenID Connect (OIDC), built on OAuth 2.0, is the primary integration path — it uses the authorization code flow and returns the user’s identity information as a secure JSON Web Token (JWT), also known as an ID token. It works across web, mobile and JavaScript clients. SAML 1.1 is also supported for organizations that need it, including logout and single sign-on (SSO). Both protocols are well documented, so your team can choose the approach that fits your existing architecture.
Can branding be customized?
Yes. Each customer can configure logos, branding and redirect URIs to match their existing product experience. You can use IN Groupe’s standard eID selection screen with your own branding, or build a fully custom authentication flow if your team prefers full control over the interface.
Is a test environment available, and can we test with all supported eIDs?
Yes. A sandbox environment is available covering all supported eID methods — MitID, BankID, Belgian eID and the rest. You can test with mock identity data for each method before going live, so your team can validate the entire authentication flow without touching real user data. Sandbox access is provided as part of onboarding. Mention it on your demo call and we’ll set you up.
How does Penneo Verify support DORA compliance?
DORA requires regulated organizations to identify, manage and report on risk from third-party IT vendors — including maintaining a register of critical IT vendors and conducting ongoing risk assessments. By consolidating authentication and signing under one Penneo relationship, we reduce the number of business-critical vendors you need to track. We can provide supporting documentation for your vendor assessment. We recommend discussing your specific regulatory obligations with your compliance lead.
