What is Digidentity?

Digidentity is a digital identity provider based in the Netherlands. It is a certified Qualified Trust Service Provider under the EU eIDAS regulation and is included on the EU Trust List. Digidentity is one of the founding providers of eHerkenning, the Dutch business login framework, and it issues reusable digital identities that people can use to access government and commercial services.

Digidentity builds its digital identities through a fully remote proofing process. The person reads the chip in their passport or identity document with an NFC-enabled smartphone, then captures a liveness-checked selfie that is matched against the photo on the document. Once the identity is established, it can be reused across services without repeating the full check.

Through the connector, verified identity data flows back into your process. Because Digidentity supports selective disclosure, the person can share only the details a given transaction needs, and Zenoo records the verified result with a full audit trail.

How verification works

Person proves identity with Digidentity

The customer reads the chip in their passport or identity document with an NFC-enabled phone, then completes a liveness-checked selfie. A returning user can reuse an identity they have already established.

Document and biometric match

Digidentity checks the document data against the chip and matches the selfie to the document photo to confirm the person is present and genuine.

Signals returned to your flow

A verified result, the shared identity fields, and a full audit record flow straight into your Zenoo case.
