Get started with and the national sandbox

With market-leading expertise and specialized tools, we help companies get started with digital credentials and wallets in the new sandbox.

What is a digital wallet?

Digital wallets are an app or other technical solution where you store all your credentials. It ensures the credentials are stored securely and can be shared safely by you or through approved systems. The EU describes it as a secure and private tool that lets citizens and businesses prove who they are, store and share important documents, and sign contracts digitally. The point is that you keep control over your data and can share only what is relevant in a given situation.

What is a digital credential?

Digital credentials are essentially a digital version of documents and proofs you already know, such as a driver’s license, diploma, health certificate, or liquor license. Instead of having to send a file or present something physical, you can keep these credentials together in a digital wallet. All of these credentials follow a standard defined by the EU (eIDAS 2.0), which makes them displayable and verifiable without risk of forgery. They are cryptographically signed, and no one can alter or forge the content without it being detected.

Digital wallets make data sharing easier and case processing smarter

Soon, communication between public and private organizations will take place via digital wallets. You will be able to request, send, and share trustworthy documents. This will be more efficient, secure, and beneficial for everyone.

Our projects

To get started with digital wallets, it can be wise to begin with a pilot project. Here are some of the projects we’ve carried out – and the lessons we’ve learned together with our customers.

Liquor license credentialExample credential Liquor license

Simpler and faster case processing

In collaboration with the City of Oslo, we created a pilot for a digital liquor license. By using digital credentials in the application process, the work is significantly simplified – for both the applicant and the case officer.

Concession card credentialExample credential Concession card

Accessible services for everyone

Together with NAV and Entur, we piloted a digital concession card. When the card is in the wallet and linked to the Entur profile, the user automatically gets a discount – entirely without manual checks. That provides better accessibility and a more inclusive user experience.

Secure ID for everyone working in Norway

In collaboration with the Norwegian Tax Administration and the Labour Inspection Authority, we tested a digital HSE card. With digital identity in the wallet, foreign workers can more easily document who they are and where they work. That strengthens both inclusion and oversight in working life.

ID matching ensures secure use of digital identity across borders

We have developed a tool for testing and piloting ID matching between the Nordic and Baltic countries.

Both the current eIDAS network (eIDAS 1.0) and the new European digital ID wallets (eIDAS 2.0) are intended to make it possible to use your eID in all European countries. But one challenge remains – how do we recognize a digital user who has been in Norway before? NOBID ID matching solves this by matching the user’s ID from their home country with an ID in another country. This provides secure and efficient access to digital services in other countries and helps service providers recognize returning users.

Digital wallets will soon be mandatory

EU is working to ensure that all citizens in the EU, including Norway, can identify themselves and use digital services across borders. This is regulated through the upcoming eIDAS 2.0 regulation and will affect both private and public organizations.

A central part is a digital wallet that collects documentation, safeguards privacy, and can be used in all EU countries.
