SPID what it is
SPID (Public Digital Identity System) allows citizens to access the online services of Public Administrations and private entities with a single Digital Identity consisting of username and password. Before proceeding to choose the Identity Provider that will provide you with the SPID credentials, it is important to know which documents you need for the procedure: read our SPID guide how to obtain it and how it works .
SPID is also needed to access the IO App to participate in the State Cashback: read the complete guide to cashback here .
Below you will find an exhaustive guide on choosing the most suitable subject for your SPID request.
SPID how to choose Identity Provider
Here are the parameters to be evaluated when choosing the Identity Provider who will provide you with your SPID credentials – we remind you that you can request them from the age of 18 and up and if an Italian citizen residing in Italy (or with a regular residence permit) or an Italian citizen residing at abroad.
Method of recognition
One of the phases to obtain SPID is RECOGNITION. There are identity providers that to do this require you to reach one of their offices (therefore in person), others via electronic identity card (CIE), National Service Card (CNS), Digital Signature or via webcam. If you don’t want to move physically, entrust yourself to a person who does not require your physical presence in their offices.
Security level
There are three different levels of security for accessing online services through your Digital Identity. Some providers allow you to get up to the third level, others stop at two. Obviously the choice of the level could involve an expense.
- The first level: username + password
- second level: username + password + temporary access code (fundamental level if you need to access services that require a higher degree of security)
- third level: name + password + physical medium (eg smart cart) for identification
The higher the security level, the more difficult it will be for someone to discover and enter with your credentials.
