BankID Web-client

Support for the BankID Web-client is dependent of that the browser has support for JavaScript and HTML5. The majority of all modern browsers on both computers and phones/tablets do have such support but the performance will vary dependent on the processor of the device. The Web-client is designed to run on every browser that supports the mentioned web technologies and will by it self do a detection to see if the browser is compatible. The Web-client will not start if it determines that the browser does not support the mentioned technologies.

Merchants do also have access to a separate feature detection script to determine if the browser is compatible or not. It is a recommendation to implement this script. Please see BankID Implementation Guide Web-client [IMPLW] and Quick Start Guide [BIDG] for more information. 

The following list describes the combinations tested for the release. The client will support a lot more combinations than the ones mentioned below, but only these combinations have been verified during the test phase.

Internet Explorer 8 and older versions of Internet explorer do not support the needed web technologies and will therefore be unable to run the BankID Web-client.

In addition some browsers are black listed of various reasons and will also be unable to run the BankID Web-client. Please see this web page to get updated information of the current blacklist: https://www.bankid.no/bedrift/utvikler/blacklist/.
