Stø takes over BankID issuer role; all users must accept new terms
Alle må akseptere BankID-vilkårene - BankID ↗
What happened
- Stø has taken over from the banks the formal role of issuer of BankID.
- Everyone must approve new user terms in August.
- Terms acceptance happens inside the BankID window during login, never via a link in SMS or email.
Why it matters to Signicat
- Issuer role change at Norway's dominant Nordic eID affects brokers and identity-verification vendors that route Norwegian BankID; Signicat's Nordic eID brokering exposure is a monitoring item (assessment, not sourced fact).
