14 June 2024

Landsbankinn’s customers can use the Auðkenni app to log in and to authenticate in online banking and the app. Before long, it will also be possible to use the Auðkenni app for valid electronic signatures. This is particularly useful where there is an Internet connection but no phone connection, and for those who have non-Icelandic phone numbers.

The app is called Auðkenni and is produced by Auðkenni hf. It can be downloaded free of charge from the App Store and Google Play.

Who can use the Auðkenni app?

The Auðkenni app can be used anywhere in the world. It uses an Internet connection and is not dependent on a phone connection. This comes in especially useful for customers who have non-Icelandic phone numbers and are unable to install electronic ID with their SIM cards. The app can also be installed on tablets.

Female artists at Landsbankinn: Guided tour of new exhibition on Reykjavík Culture Night
To mark the occasion of the Women’s Year 2025, a new exhibition will open in Reykjastræti 6, showcasing pieces in the Bank’s collection by female artists. The exhibition opens on Reykjavík Culture Night (Menningarnótt) and, at the same time, the Landsbankinn’s gallery website will be updated to include special coverage of women artists. Landsbankinn’s collection holds numerous pieces classified as national treasures, many of which are by women.

The exhibition features paintings, textile and graphic art, as well as ceramics by 23 women. The exhibition is curated by Sigrún Hrólfsdóttir, visual artist.
