The bank authenticates the provided customer’s data and then re-logs the customer to the selected service or allows to confirm the submitted instruction or application. At the same time, at no point are data exchanged between the authority and the bank, thus making the process safe and confidential, the banks added.

The service forms part of the Polish government’s ‘From Paper to Digital Poland’ project aimed at allowing Poles to use their banking ID and password to log in to a variety of services using their banking ID, according to NFC World.
