EUDI Wallets will launch from December 2026, with mandatory acceptance following in 2027. This will directly impact how organisations verify identity, authenticate users, and meet regulatory requirements across Europe.
But wallets will not replace existing identity methods overnight. You will need to operate in a hybrid setup, combining eIDs, ID verification and wallets, while maintaining compliance and protecting user experience.
In this webinar, we’ll move beyond theory and focus on what this means in practice — and what you need to start doing now.
Key takeaways:
Business impact: how wallets affect onboarding, authentication and compliance
The hybrid reality: how to manage wallets alongside existing eIDs and ID verification
How to prepare: where to start, what to prioritise and how to avoid last-minute pressure
Implementation: how wallets fit into real customer journeys, with concrete examples
