WE BUILD, the wallet ecosystem for business and payments use cases, has been selected by the EU Commission to participate in the second round of Large Scale Pilots for the EU Digital Identity wallet.
Currently, the consortium is made up of 197 organisations that develop digital and identity components for the wallets representing all use cases and services. The wallets will deliver on innovation, digitalisation and cross-border interoperability to enable citizens’ accessibility to services and transactions made through the wallets, which in turn increases economic competitiveness across Europe.
WE BUILD is one of the consortiums exploring thirteen citizen-focused use cases around payments and business, exploring cross-border payment issuance, instant payments and account-to-account transfers. In preparation for building citizen and legal wallets, WE BUILD focuses on use cases having “high level of occurrence and high impact on the digital economy”.
With nearly 200 partners – Member States, public and private sector, both large, medium and small – WE BUILD has the width, the depth and the power to have a meaningful impact.
This will allow businesses to automate and speed up processes and reduce costs and improve security. The private sector consortium partners in We BUILD will pilot the EUDI Wallets in several B2B, B2G or B2C interactions and assess the benefits in terms of engagement, trust, efficiencies and viability.
WE BUILD is expected to start work in September 2025, running for 24 months.
WE BUILD is led by the Dutch and Swedish government authorities Ministry of Economic Affairs (Netherlands), KVK Netherlands) and Bolagsverket (Sweden).
