Svensk e-identitet

What Svensk e-identitet does

Svensk e-identitet AB (trading as E-identitet) is a Swedish digital identity and authentication provider headquartered in Uppsala, founded in 2009 and operating as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Nordic software conglomerate Visma Group since 2017. The company offers a modular platform that simplifies electronic identification, secure login, and digital contract signing for Swedish public sector, healthcare, and enterprise customers, integrating multiple national e-identity schemes — BankID, Freja eID+, Freja OrgID, SITHS eID, SITHS via Net iD, Pointsharp Net iD, and the upcoming state-issued Sverige-id — through a single eID API supporting SAML, OpenID Connect, and RADIUS protocols. Core service lines are: (1) authentication and login integration; (2) e-signing and contract management via eAvtal and eBlanketter; (3) HSA and SITHS ombudsman (agent) services, where E-identitet is one of Sweden's largest certified agents for the Inera-managed healthcare address register and SITHS card issuance; and (4) Sambi identity federation connection services.

Revenue is generated primarily through recurring subscriptions tied to multi-year framework agreements with municipalities, regions, healthcare providers, and enterprises, supplemented by per-certificate fees for SITHS, funktionscertifikat, and TGP certificates, professional services for integration and implementation, and ancillary hardware sales (card readers, test cards). Disclosed annual turnover is 173 MSEK with 52 employees serving over 2,000 customers across Sweden, and the company holds ISO 9001 and ISO 27001 certifications and SIGILL trust marking. Distribution combines direct enterprise sales (contracts signed via BankID), a channel partner network (Prosona, Entergate, Expendio, Nordik Peak, Tele2), the Visma ecosystem, and a unique physical card-issuance partnership with Apoteket's ~400 pharmacy locations, enabling nationwide SITHS card activation from Kiruna to Trelleborg.

Direct peers

• Signicat: Norwegian-headquartered digital identity broker offering eID aggregation, SSO/federation, and e-signing across the Nordics and Europe. Direct overlap with E-identitet's authentication-portfolio play and Swedish public-sector customers.
• Curity: Swedish IAM/SSO software vendor providing OAuth, OIDC, and SAML federation tooling. Competes for the same developer and enterprise identity-integration mindshare that E-identitet targets via its eID API.
• Verisec (Freja eID Group): Swedish vendor behind Freja eID and Freja OrgID. Operates the upstream identities that E-identitet resells and integrates, while also serving end customers directly in adjacent identity services.
• Combinator (formerly.Identity / Nexus Group): Swedish digital identity and trust-services provider offering eID credentials, PKI, and signing services to enterprise and public sector, sharing E-identitet's focus on regulated Nordic verticals.
• Nexus Group: European IAM and PKI specialist with strong Nordic and Swedish public-sector footprint, including workforce credentials and citizen identity. Competes in certificate-based authentication and smart-card issuance adjacent to SITHS.

Emerging players

• Criipto: Danish e-ID aggregation and authentication provider covering Nordic and European BankID variants. Overlaps with E-identitet's multi-eID-broker thesis and targets developers and SaaS buyers with similar use cases.
• Axiomatics: Swedish attribute-based access control (ABAC) vendor serving large enterprises, including in regulated industries. Adjacent identity-and-authorization layer that often pairs with SSO/federation platforms such as E-identitet's.

Regional players

• SmartID: Norwegian and Baltic mobile-based eID scheme owned by banks. Comparable to BankID and Freja eID at the credential layer; relevant because Nordic e-ID users increasingly expect cross-border acceptance.

Broad incumbents

• Okta: Global workforce and customer identity platform with strong federation and SSO coverage. Competes with E-identitet primarily in larger Swedish enterprise deals where international identity suites are evaluated.

Others

• Pointsharp: Swedish PKI and Net iD technology vendor whose products E-identitet resells and operates as a managed service. Functions as both partner and adjacent supplier for SITHS-based authentication.
