Guide on how to move BankID to the new handset
Step 1: Download the BankID app
Perhaps an obvious step for most, but the first thing you need to do is download BankID to your new device.
Open the App Store or Google Play on your new device and search for "BankID". Then tap on the app in the search result and choose to download the app to your device.
Step 2: Log in to your internet bank
You can either activate a new Mobile BankID using your old Mobile BankID or if for some reason you no longer have access to it, you can activate using a security box.
Log in to your internet bank and then go to " Move Mobile BankID ". Don't you see it? You will often find it under Digital services or Change login method . Then follow the instructions.
Because the process can vary significantly between different banks, we present here a list of the most popular banks. You can follow their detailed instructions for a smooth transfer of your BankID:
Please note: If you do not have access to your old Mobile BankID or a BankID with a security box, you need to order a new one, which you can usually do directly in the internet bank or by contacting your bank.
Step 3: Block BankID on the old device
After you activate BankID on the new device, delete the BankID app from the old phone to secure your identity.
If you chose to order a new BankID, it is also important to ensure that your old BankID is removed on the day you no longer have any use for it - for example, when you get rid of the old device.
Final words:
Changing phones should be a joyous experience, and the security of your digital life doesn't have to be a burden. By following these simple steps, you can quickly get started with your new purchase from Refurbly and feel confident that your BankID is secure and available.
