FINcredible is an accredited ID Austria partner and integrates Austria’s official electronic identity directly — for government-backed verification with no additional matching step required.
About This Technology
As an accredited ID Austria partner, FINcredible connects directly to Austria’s official electronic identity. Unlike Bank-Ident or Document-Ident, this removes the need for an additional matching step — identity is already verified through the ID Austria confirmation itself.
One of Three Verification Methods
ID Austria is one of three combinable methods for digital identity verification at FINcredible — alongside Bank-Ident and Document-Ident. Not every customer has ID Austria, so all three methods can be configured based on the target audience.
Verification in Under a Minute
Identity verification via ID Austria is fully digital and typically completed in under a minute — no appointment, no visit to a government office.
ID Austria with a Fallback Option
ID Austria can be combined with Bank-Ident or Document-Ident — for example, as the primary method with one of the other two as a fallback if a customer doesn’t have ID Austria.
