The UK Government has confirmed that a free digital ID will be available to all UK citizens and legal residents, stored securely on your smartphone. The rollout is underway but not yet fully open to the public.

✔ Where you will sign up

You will sign up through GOV.UK, most likely using the following:

1. The GOV.UK App + Digital Wallet

The government announced a new GOV.UK Wallet inside the GOV.UK app, which will hold your digital ID (similar to Apple Wallet).This is where your digital ID card will appear once you sign up.

2. GOV.UK One Login

This statement refers to the basic level of need for everyone to participate equally in the online world:

Minimum Digital Living Standard (MDLS) — UK

The Minimum Digital Living Standard (MDLS) is a UK benchmark that defines what households need to be digitally included in contemporary society. It is not a luxury standard, but the agreed minimum required to participate safely and confidently in everyday digital life.

Official definition

A minimum digital living standard includes having accessible internet, adequate equipment, and the skills and knowledge people need. It is about being able to communicate, connect and engage with opportunities safely and with confidence. 

What the MDLS covers

Many of our members have expressed concerns about the future of Digital ID. Currently the Government have set out a consultation, which you can access here. It's in the form of a survey.
