- Full compliance: support of the highest security level (LoA High) for MLA-relevant processes
The introduction of the digital identity wallet (EUDI wallet) is one of the most important steps towards digitalization in Europe. Although the legal framework and technical specifications are already in place, the concept of “digital identity” still remains theoretical for many organizations. The answer to the fundamental question is often missing: how will these changes affect day-to-day customer service and business processes?
At sproof, we believe that technology should be transparent and understandable. That’s why we provide the sproof Ident Demo Portal – a secure test environment where you can simulate modern identification processes live without having to deal with complicated documentation. This is another step on the way to building digital trust.
The challenge: hurdles in digital onboarding
In regulated industries such as banking, insurance or legal advice, identity verification (KYC) forms the basis for security. Despite advancing digitalization, many processes are still based on solutions that cause unnecessary delays: the manual sending of document scans or time-consuming video verification.
These obstacles not only prolong transaction times, but above all impair user convenience. Today’s business world needs standards that combine maximum compliance (LoA High) with ease of use.
A new approach: practical scenarios in the sproof Ident demo portal
Instead of describing functions, we show how digital identity can become a natural part of everyday processes. We guide you through specific use cases.
Banks: Digital account opening with Auto-Ident
We simulate an onboarding process in which the identity check is completely digital. Thanks to automatic document analysis and biometric verification (selfie), the process is predictable and secure. The user does not leave your brand’s environment, which provides a sense of stability.
Payment providers: Digital identity verification for regulated payment services
Experience how modern identification processes can be used for fraud prevention, compliance and secure customer onboarding. The demo shows a practical onboarding process whose underlying identity mechanisms are also relevant for payment applications.
Energy suppliers: Digital identification with ID Austria
We show how government-validated systems (such as ID Austria) can support the private sector. In this scenario, identity verification forms the basis for secure contract management in customer portals and ensures full compliance with legal regulations.
Telecommunications: Relevance for digital customer processes
The identity processes shown in the demo are also important for telecommunications providers. Similar requirements for the secure identification of customers exist, for example, when concluding contracts, activating services or managing digital customer accounts. The demo therefore also gives telecommunications companies a practical impression of how state-validated digital identities can be integrated into existing customer processes in the future.
Car rental: EUDI Wallet for driving license and ID card
We are prepared for the new “European Digital Identity Wallet” standard. Using the example of a vehicle rental, we will show how data from the digital wallet (ID card, driver’s license) will be transferred seamlessly and immediately in the near future so that your customers can sign the rental contract in no time at all.
The future: operational security with the EUDI Wallet
Using the demo portal is more than just a test of sproof’s Ident tool. It is an opportunity to understand how a modern trust architecture makes life easier for both employees and customers.
Your advantages:
- Practical understanding: Experience how digital identity fits organically into your customer journey.
- Precise planning: Get realistic insights into KYC workflows before you implement them.
- Compliance without compromise: Test procedures that meet the highest regulatory requirements (AMLA, eIDAS).
- Natural evolution: Prepare your company for the new EUDI wallet standard without time pressure.
We invite you to discover how digital ident technologies can become an invisible but solid foundation of trust in your company.

The Austrian eID card app already offers many functions that are also provided in the EUDI wallet. These include, for example, the digital driving license, age verification or digital proof based on the ID Austria. The most important difference is that the EUDI Wallet is being developed as a European solution. While the eID card app is primarily designed for use in Austria, the EUDI Wallet is intended to enable the cross-border use of digital identities and proof of identity within the European Union. In addition, the EUDI Wallet is designed to bundle a wide range of digital proofs in a single application in the future. The eID card app is therefore considered an important precursor, while the EUDI Wallet represents the next step towards a Europe-wide interoperable digital identity.

With the EUDI Wallet, various digital proofs and identity data can be combined and shared in a single process. Users decide for themselves which information they want to share for a specific use case. When opening an account, for example, the digital identity (PID), proof of address and proof of income can be transmitted at the same time. This so-called multi-credential presentation enables secure and efficient data transfer without the need to manually upload or check individual documents. For companies, this means faster and seamless processes, for example in KYC or onboarding procedures, while users benefit from simple and data protection-friendly processing.
-

Yes, with the EUDI wallet, digital identity data and proofs of identity are to be used and accepted throughout the European Union in future. A central goal of eIDAS 2.0 is to enable the cross-border use of digital evidence for citizens and companies. This means that proofs from the EUDI wallet can be used not only in the country of origin, but also by authorities and private providers in other EU member states. These include, for example, banks, insurance companies, telecommunications providers and energy suppliers. However, the Europe-wide interoperability of the EUDI Wallet will be introduced gradually. Although the legal basis is being created, there may be differences in the technical implementation and availability of individual services in the initial phase. Completely seamless use in all EU countries is expected to be established over several development stages.

Modern smartphones with special security functions are required to use the EUDI wallet. These include so-called Secure Elements (SE) or Trusted Execution Environments (TEE), which are integrated into many of today’s devices. These protected hardware areas ensure that cryptographic keys are stored and processed securely. The sensitive data does not leave the protected area of the device and is specially protected even if the operating system is compromised. The exact hardware requirements of the EUDI wallet are defined as part of the European specifications. The aim is to ensure a high level of security and at the same time enable use on as many popular smartphones as possible.

The creation of a PID (Person Identification Data) for the EUDI wallet can take place in different ways depending on the Member State. The aim is to provide secure and user-friendly procedures for initial onboarding. In Austria, the ID Austria forms an important basis for issuing the PID. In Germany, there are also discussions about including alternative procedures to facilitate access to the EUDI wallet. These include, for example, certified identification procedures such as identification at banks, the post office or other trustworthy bodies. Such procedures can help to transfer the PID securely to the EUDI wallet, even if the online ID function (eID) is not used or is not available.
Solutions such as sproof Ident aim to bundle various identification procedures and future EUDI wallet processes in a standardized infrastructure.

The EUDI Wallet offers companies numerous advantages in the digital identification and onboarding of customers. As users can provide their identity data directly from the EUDI Wallet, in many cases there is no need to manually fill out forms or upload copies of ID cards.
This reduces onboarding abandonment rates and significantly speeds up processes. At the same time, data quality increases as the information comes directly from trustworthy sources and transmission errors are avoided.
Companies also benefit from more efficient KYC processes, a better user experience and lower operational costs. The EUDI wallet can therefore help to make digital business processes simpler, more secure and more cost-efficient.
Solutions such as sproof Ident help companies to connect existing identification procedures with future EUDI wallet processes and seamlessly integrate digital proof of identity into existing business processes.
