To carry out identity verification via your online banking, you need an account at a bank in Germany. The identification is a one-time thing and only takes a few minutes.
Note: You need an account at a bank in Germany to get identified via online banking. Also, if you share your bank account with another person, you won't be able to use it for identity verification.
The bank identification is carried out in cooperation with our partners Klarna and Swisscom and is available to you 7 days a week around the clock. All you need is an account with online banking at a bank in Germany. You can find the list of banks that do not support identification here.
