ABANCA has achieved international FIDO certification for the Llave ABANCA service, the digital identity verification technology solution developed by the bank that allows customers to validate mobile banking transactions securely and quickly by unlocking their phone.

The FIDO ( Fast IDentity Online ) certification has been granted by the FIDO Alliance, the leading international association promoting digital authentication standards that are more robust and simpler than passwords or one-time codes. This consortium is made up of the world’s leading technology companies—Google, Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, and Visa, among others—who have joined forces to promote more robust and user-friendly digital identity methods. With the FIDO certification of Llave ABANCA, this global alliance accredits that the solution implemented by the bank meets the highest standards of online identity verification.
