IDnow launches IDnow Trust Platform as Europe enters a new phase of digital identity

Published

The IDnow Trust Platform helps organisations orchestrate identity, fraud and compliance across the full customer lifecycle. It is built for where digital identity is going, not just where it is.

MUNICH, June 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Europe’s digital identity market is entering its most significant transformations in a decade. New regulations, digital identity wallets and increasingly sophisticated AI-driven fraud are challenging assumptions that have shaped the digital identity market for more than a decade.

Reflecting this shift, IDnow today announces the launch of the IDnow Trust Platform, marking the company’s expansion beyond traditional identity verification. The platform is designed to help regulated organisations orchestrate verification, fraud prevention, biometric authentication and qualified digital trust services across the customer lifecycle.

“The identity industry is entering its biggest transformation since onboarding first went digital,” said Andreas Bodczek, CEO of IDnow. “For years, organisations treated identity verification as a one-time event at the start of a customer relationship. That model is no longer sufficient. We are moving from a world centred on one-time verification to one centred on continuous trust.”

Several developments are driving this shift. AMLR will introduce a harmonised anti-money laundering framework across the European Union from July 2027, while regulated businesses will be required to accept EU Digital Identity Wallets from November 2027. At the same time, advances in generative AI are making identity-related fraud more sophisticated and easier to scale. Consumers also increasingly expect digital onboarding and authentication processes to be fast, seamless and secure.

Historically, identity verification focused primarily on onboarding. Today, organisations need to establish and maintain trust long after the initial verification has taken place.

From KYC to TYC

The IDnow Trust Platform is designed to move businesses beyond Know Your Customer (KYC) to Trust Your Customer (TYC). Through four modular services – Identify, Authenticate, Protect and Trust – the platform delivers continuous, evidence-based trust across the full customer lifecycle.

Its Orchestrate, Observe and Decide capabilities enable organisations to configure workflows, monitor risk signals in real time and automate decisions without involving the engineering team when regulation shifts or fraud patterns change.

Complexity Is Coming. We Built the Answer.

IDnow is at the forefront of Europe’s EUDI Wallet rollout – already operational in key markets and ready to accept wallet presentations from citizens across all 27 Member States ahead of the November 2027 mandate. But while the arrival of EU Digital Identity Wallets marks a landmark moment for European digital identity, it is often misread as a simplification of compliance. It isn’t. Wallets represent one powerful new input into an increasingly complex compliance picture, not a replacement for everything that came before.

Organisations will simultaneously need to accept and integrate multiple wallet standards and eID schemes, each evolving under a shifting regulatory framework, while continuing to strengthen classical document-based identity verification for the significant proportion of users and scenarios wallets do not yet cover. The result is not a simpler onboarding landscape. It is a considerably more complex one. This is precisely the problem the IDnow Trust Platform is built to solve. Rather than forcing organisations to manage this complexity themselves, across multiple vendors, integration layers and constantly changing regulatory requirements, the Trust Platform abstracts it into a single, orchestrated infrastructure. IDnow has secured the certificates required to accept wallet presentations across key markets, including the German Berechtigungszertifikat, and combines wallet capabilities with in-house Qualified Trust Services and Qualified Electronic Attestations of Attributes (QEAA) to address the gaps that wallet identity data alone cannot fill. Organisations using the IDnow Trust Platform can navigate this complexity without it becoming a barrier to growth – staying compliant, preventing fraud, and continuing to serve customers efficiently as the regulatory landscape evolves beneath them.

“The wallet gets you through the door, the IDnow Trust Platform gets you through compliance,” said Jonas Mendes, Director of Product at IDnow. “For years, organisations could build an onboarding process and leave it largely unchanged. That is no longer the world we live in. Fraud evolves faster, regulations evolve faster and new identity methods are emerging. The real challenge is being able to adapt without needing your development teams to adjust customer journeys every time something changes.”

The IDnow Trust Platform is available now. Regulated organisations across financial services, fintech, crypto, insurance, telecommunications and gaming can integrate via a single API and access the full capabilities of the platform today.

Digital Radio Solutions for Small and Medium-Sized European Businesses

CHICAGO, June 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — For small and medium-sized businesses, reliable, high-quality communication is essential. These businesses require the audio quality and features digital radio systems provide but often find current options oversized, overpriced and unnecessarily complex.

With 65 years of experience in the two-way radio sector, Cobra Electronics has addressed these needs with the launch of its first DMR Tier II product line. Designed specifically for demanding business environments, these radios deliver dependable digital performance without the cost, bulk or complexity common in competing solutions.

The Performa Digital Series reflects Cobra’s focused approach to solving real-world business communication challenges. The line-up is cost-effective, easy to deploy and simple to use.

The Performa line-up includes two models for different work environments: the Performa 600 Digital prioritises wearability and simplicity for highly mobile teams, while the Performa 850 Digital delivers enhanced range, power and customisation for larger or more demanding sites. Both suit industries where coordination and mobility are critical, including hospitality, education, warehousing, event management and facility operations. On multi-shift, fast-moving sites, this DMR Tier II Compliant line-up will help teams communicate clearly, respond quickly and stay aligned throughout the workday.

“Clear, reliable communication is critical to keeping teams running efficiently, but many SMBs have been priced out of digital solutions,” said Jonas Forsberg, CEO of Cedar Electronics. “With the expansion of the Performa line-up to include digital, we’re making high-performance digital communication more accessible and scalable, giving businesses the reliability, durability and flexibility they need to stay connected effectively and operate with confidence.” 

Purpose-Built Solutions for Different Operational Needs

Performa 600 Digital – The Performa 600 is a compact, lightweight, digital radio built for teams that value comfort and agility. With a full 2-watt power output, a fixed antenna and a clear LED channel display, it delivers consistent, dependable communication in a wearable form factor.

Performa 850 Digital – The Performa 850 is a higher-powered digital radio designed for larger facilities, outdoor job sites and multi-storey operations. With 4-watt output, it offers extended coverage, a removable antenna and a dot matrix display for greater flexibility and customisation, making the 850 a more advanced option for organisations that require more scalability and customisation as their operations evolve.

Designed for flexible deployment, the Cobra Performa Digital Series is compatible with most DMR Tier II products currently on the market, allowing organisations to transition to digital at their own pace without replacing entire systems at once. Both models are built for durability, featuring IP67 waterproofing and MIL-STD-810H certification to ensure reliable performance in demanding conditions.

Cobra’s new Performa Digital radios are distributed exclusively through Airsys in Europe. The Cobra Performa Digital Series radios will start shipping this autumn. To learn more, visit https://eu.cobra.com/
