Summary

itsme is a Belgian mobile electronic identity service operated by Belgian Mobile ID that lets users approve logins, identity verification, and signatures through its app, while businesses can integrate it via an OpenID Connect API to receive user-approved attributes such as name, date of birth, contact details, address, national register number, photo, nationality, and age-verification flags. The service was notified under the Belgian eID Scheme FAS at eIDAS High level in 2019, although Belgian federal services classify PIN-based approvals as high and biometric approvals as substantial. Itsme reported more than 8 million Belgian users and 594 million actions in 2025, and it is used across public and private services including banking, government, health, insurance, and onboarding. Belgian AML rules allow electronic identification methods such as eIDAS eIDs for customer due diligence when institutions perform their own reliability analysis, while forthcoming EU AML rules will recognize substantial and high assurance eIDs. Businesses may contract directly with itsme or use certified partners, but pricing is quote-based and unpublished. Because use requires a smartphone and excludes some users or account types from certain services, the material recommends offering document-based verification with NFC reading, liveness detection, and face matching as a fallback, alongside safeguards against scams in which fraudsters persuade users to approve unsolicited actions.
