A-Trust and PXL Vision Simplify the Access to Qualified Electronic Signatures

Mood picture: Four people symbolize teamwork by putting four matching puzzle pieces together to form a whole.

New Partnership for Easier and More Secure Identification

A-Trust, Austria’s leading trust service provider, has entered a strategic partnership with PXL Vision, a Swiss premium provider of digital identity verification solutions. The aim of this collaboration is to make access to Qualified Electronic Signatures (QES) easier, faster, and more convenient.

Identification in Seconds

Thanks to the browser-based solution PXL Ident. Users can complete the necessary identity verification within minutes using the NFC chip in their ID documents — without any media disruptions. All they need is a smartphone or tablet. After scanning their ID document and completing a selfie verification, users receive an eIDAS-compliant qualified certificate from A-Trust, allowing them to sign documents securely and with legal validity throughout Europe.

Maximum Security for International Use

“This partnership provides our users with another straightforward, fast, and secure way to obtain a QES,” Markus Vesely the CEO of A-Trust explains. For companies, this means they can make their signature processes more efficient and enable their employees to participate regardless of their location.

The security of sensitive data remains at the highest level: Both companies comply with strict European security standards such as ISO/IEC 27001 and support FINMA-, BaFin-, and FMA-compliant processes, as well as ZertES- and eIDAS-compliant signatures.

Strengthening the Central European Economic Area

PXL Vision can process identity documents from over 165 countries. This enables cross-border business processes and opens new opportunities for companies across Europe.

“We are very pleased about this partnership with A-Trust, whose many years of experience and millions of active users guarantee long-term security and reliability,” emphasizes Michael Born, CEO of PXL Vision.

Markus Vesely adds: “This collaboration demonstrates how essential strong partnerships are for economic growth. Especially in challenging times, it is crucial to work together on future-proof solutions.

With this partnership, A-Trust and PXL Vision are setting a new standard for digital signatures in Europe, making secure, digital document handling easier for both businesses and private individuals.
