Constantly verifying your ID can be a hassle.
Sharing your driver licence, proof of age card, passport, Medicare card, birth certificate and address details puts all that information at risk of falling into the wrong hands.
But there’s a solution that makes our lives a whole lot easier and our personal info a whole lot safer.
Say hello to Australia’s digital ID system.
It’s a straightforward, safer way of verifying who you are online, putting you in control of your information and providing a secure and convenient way to access online services.
Picture this, you’re changing jobs, getting a new phone or applying for a loan.
So, you have three copies of your private information stored who knows where? Good news!
In the future you’ll be able to do all of this without sharing copies of your personal ID documents, wherever you are. No long queues, no paperwork.
And once you’ve chosen and set up a digital ID, you can use it again and again for services connected to the system.
Did you know there’s already a lot you can do under Australia’s digital ID system?
Things like using your myGovID to do your annual tax return or setting up your access to claim back childcare costs online.
In a world where cyber security is top of mind, the digital ID system safeguards your personal information and saves you time when you need to verify your ID online.
Australia’s digital ID system brings together government and industry digital IDs that meet strong privacy and security standards.
This will mean more secure digital ID options for you to choose from and more ways for you to use them.
