Your brand

Built on swiyu

Benefit from Switzerland’s official swiyu trust infrastructure, open standards and the official swiyu Wallet.

Trust rules

Define which issuers and credentials your organisation accepts for each use case, from resident cards to access control.

Selective data

Request only the attributes each process requires. Users share less data, while you simplify privacy compliance.

Use cases

From employee ID card to event ticket.

Employee badges

Identify your employees digitally, from their first day of work through to their departure. The card serves as an access credential, a second factor for sensitive applications, or a proof of authorisation with customers and partners.

Resident cards

Issue residents with a digital proof of their place of residence, for discounts at the outdoor pool, access to the recycling centre, or reduced rates at the ski resort. Applications are verified directly via the official Swiss e-ID.

Student cards

A digital ID card accompanies students throughout their daily lives, from the canteen to the library and public transport discounts. Schools and universities issue the card; accepting bodies verify it within seconds.

Certificates and diplomas

Issue certificates, diplomas and further education credentials digitally, tamper-proof and verifiable in the long term. Graduates carry their educational history in their wallet; future employers verify it within seconds.

Professional credentials

Document qualifications and professional licences digitally, from the FMH register entry to the SUVA safety certificate and the legal practice licence. Clients, site managers or patients verify authorisations on-site and in real time.

Member and customer cards

Replace plastic cards with digital credentials, for sports clubs, industry associations, mountain railways, hotel guest cards or retail loyalty programmes. You manage cards centrally; renewals and revocations are handled at the touch of a button.

Visitor passes

External persons identify themselves digitally at the factory gate, reception or security checkpoint, using a visitor or supplier pass that combines access authorisation, training records and contract entitlement in a single credential. Security and reception staff verify on-site via QR code or NFC.

Tickets and accreditations

Issue tickets, season passes or accreditations as digital credentials, from concerts to trade fairs and stadium visits. Entry checks at the gate use QR code or NFC; resale and counterfeiting are prevented cryptographically.

Security

Your credentials are in safe hands.

DeepCredentials is ISO 27001:2022-certified and hosts all data exclusively on servers in Switzerland.

On the government trust infrastructure

DeepCredentials is built on the swiyu trust infrastructure and open standards such as OID4VCI and OID4VP.

Decentralised data storage

Credentials stay in the holder's wallet, reducing both breach risk and third-party tracking.

Secure Swiss hosting

Hosted exclusively on secure servers in Switzerland, with security, privacy and operational controls designed for enterprise and public-sector environments.

Who can use DeepCredentials?

DeepCredentials is designed for any organisation that wants to issue or verify digital credentials. The platform is built horizontally and can be used across sectors from healthcare, education and public administration to industry, tourism and events. Typical use cases include employee ID cards, professional and authorisation credentials, educational certificates, resident cards, age verification and event tickets.

How quickly can DeepCredentials be deployed?

As a SaaS solution, DeepCredentials is ready to use immediately, with no installation and no infrastructure of your own. Once you have completed the onboarding process with the Swiss Confederation as a recognised issuer, you can begin issuing and verifying straight away. We guide you through every step.

Pilot operations on the beta environment of the trust infrastructure are already possible today. Contact us.

How can I identify persons who do not have a Swiss e-ID?

With DeepID, you identify persons using international passports and identity documents. The identification process is ZertES- and eIDAS-compliant and certified by KPMG in accordance with ETSI TS 119 461. Once the official Swiss e-ID is widely available, both identity sources can be used in parallel within DeepCredentials.

Can we integrate DeepCredentials into our existing software?

Yes. We offer standard integrations for Abacus and Innosolv, with further industry solutions to follow. For all other specialist applications, DeepCredentials provides a documented REST API with an OpenAPI specification, through which issuance and verification can be integrated directly.

In which wallet are credentials stored?

Credentials are not stored centrally; they reside exclusively in the wallet of the respective person. DeepCredentials currently supports the swiyu Wallet of the Swiss Confederation as the official wallet of Switzerland's trust infrastructure. Further wallets and a dedicated DeepCredentials Wallet are in preparation, so that credentials can be used in different environments in future.

Which standards and protocols does DeepCredentials support?

DeepCredentials is built on the open standards of the Swiss trust infrastructure: OID4VCI (OpenID for Verifiable Credential Issuance) for the issuance of credentials, OID4VP (OpenID for Verifiable Presentations) for verification, SD-JWT VC as the credential format, did:webvh for issuer identifiers, and Token Status List for revocation. The Swiss Confederation's Base Registry serves as the central trust source. Your customers receive, store and present your credentials in the same swiyu Wallet as their official Swiss e-ID, without any additional app.

How are issued credentials revoked?

Credentials can be managed at any time via the DeepCredentials portal or through the API. You can permanently revoke a credential, for example when an employee leaves, or temporarily suspend it, for example during a sabbatical. The status change is recorded in the Token Status List on the Swiss Confederation's Base Registry and is immediately visible to all verifiers.

What is the difference between the Swiss e-ID and DeepID?

The official Swiss e-ID is issued by the Swiss Confederation and is intended for persons resident in Switzerland who can be identified using an official Swiss identity document. DeepID is issued by DeepCloud and identifies persons using international passports and identity documents, ZertES- and eIDAS-compliant and certified by KPMG in accordance with ETSI TS 119 461. Both can be used in parallel within DeepCredentials, ensuring that persons without the official Swiss e-ID can also be reliably identified.

How does DeepCredentials differ from swiyu directly?

swiyu is the Swiss Confederation's government trust infrastructure, including the wallet app of the same name. It provides the technical foundation but does not offer managed services for organisations. DeepCredentials is built on top of swiyu and provides organisations with a fully managed SaaS service for issuing, managing and verifying their own credentials, including onboarding support and an API.

How does DeepCredentials work with other DeepCloud products?

DeepCredentials is part of the DeepCloud platform and can be combined with its other products. DeepID extends the official Swiss e-ID with a ZertES- and eIDAS-compliant identification process for persons without an e-ID. DeepSign connects issued credentials with legally binding electronic signatures in accordance with ZertES and eIDAS. DeepValidator validates signed documents and certificates for authenticity. Together, these products cover the entire lifecycle of digital identities, credentials and signatures from a single source.
