Danske ID identification app works like this:

1. Log into eBanking by writing your user ID and your password
2. Choose the Danske ID tab and send a login request to your mobile device
3. Open the Danske ID app on your mobile device and enter your PIN code
4. Swipe to approve your login

The identification app sends identification numbers to the bank via a secured network, and each number is used only once and for one transaction. You should also note that other applications in your mobile device cannot access the Danske ID data.

You can use the Danske ID in your old mobile device or SMS to activate the Danske ID app in your new mobile device. Download the Danske ID app from the app store to your new phone and use your banking credentials to activate it (user ID, password and Danske ID on your old phone).

You can also use the Danske Code Calculator, the SMS activation code or the banking credentials of another bank to activate it.

The app and its use are both safe. Opening the app is protected by PIN code, fingerprint or facial recognition.

In the background, Danske ID sends identifiers to the bank over a secure connection, and identifiers are single-use and event-specific. It should be noted, that other apps of your device cannot access data in Danske ID.

However, we recommend that you protect your mobile device by locking the screen.
