Social Voucher ID
Our Social Voucher ID supports subsidy payments from the government to citizens. They are based on a Decentralized Digital ID which enables paperless and cashless processes.
Citizens can apply for subsidies online and receive vouchers in their MyID app. Citizens also have the possibility to access their vouchers using QR codes printed on physical cards. To make a payment, the QR code is scanned at the merchant’s checkout – online or offline – and the payment is settled automatically.
Merchants and other acceptance points are not required to use specialized equipment. They can download a mobile app to validate the identity of the voucher holder by scanning the QR Code and to process the voucher payment.

01
Applying for Digital ID
The first step for the Citizen to receive a Social Voucher is applying for a Digital ID. Once the Digital ID is granted, Citizen data can then be validated by other local government units and relying parties.
02
Apply for subsidies to obtain Voucher
When a citizen applies for a subsidy, for instance, based on the Social Amelioration Program (SAP), their Digital ID and the related Citizen ID data can be shared online with the government unit responsible for granting the social aid. When the citizen’s eligibility for the subsidy is confirmed, a Social Voucher is issued automatically to the Citizen.
03
Receive and accept the Social Voucher ID covering the granted subsidy
Once the eligibility of the Citizen for a subsidy has been confirmed, the Citizen can receive the Social Voucher ID which can especially be used to receive discounts for online payments. Once accepted by the Citizen, the Social Voucher is stored as an ID Card in the MyID app.
04
Shop and present Voucher at Checkout
While shopping, the Citizen can share the voucher at the checkout to pay for the purchased goods. The merchant uses an app on their mobile device to scan the code presented by the Citizen for applying the conditions specified by the social aid program, for example a full reimbursement or partial discount of the payment amount.
05
Transaction is settled and the Purchase or Discount is reimbursed to the Merchant
When sharing the Social Voucher ID, the system links the merchant to the voucher account of the Citizen and checks real time the status of the account. Provided that the citizen’s voucher account holds sufficient funds, the payment is settled automatically between the merchant and the Social Aid Program.
