The most common questions about Fio Banking Identity are answered in our FAQ.

Is it safe?

Every login via Banking Identity requires your subsequent authorization via SMS or push notification. Since your login credentials are even more important with Banking Identity, you really need to not share them with anyone and protect them carefully. We therefore recommend you to re-remind yourself of ten safety principles. You also need to protect your mobile devices and only use apps from a verified source.

100% confidentiality

Banking Identity is used to prove identity. No data will ever be shared with a third party without your consent, i.e. the state or anyone else will not see, for example, your account balance or movements. Similarly, Fio banka does not have access to any information displayed or services you use after using your Fio Banking Identity.

You are in full control - the information we record about you and which you have agreed to use within Bank iD can be found in Internet Banking in the top right hand corner under Settings > Personal data. There you can check and optionally edit them at any time.
