You can log in to Banqup using trusted identity providers like Itsme. The fact that the provider has previously verified your identity allows you to use what's called a federated identity to log in to various services like Banqup with a single set of credentials. This provides an extra layer of security while making login easier since you can use your existing verified identity.

You can add a federated identity when logging in or from your account settings:

Important notes

Deactivating an identity doesn't affect your username and password.
