Belgians do not want a digitised identity card on smartphones

71% of Belgians would not want a digital identity card on their smartphone. Most (79%) are also not fans of a digital driving licence.

”We notice a great reluctance among people when it comes to using the smartphone as an identification solution. Often this is not necessarily due to a distrust of the technology – as we already use the device to do our banking – but rather a reaction to the centralisation of everything in our lives around the smartphone. ”
