Kyiv Polytechnic Institute becomes first Ukrainian university to join National Bank's BankID for free
Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute has become the first higher education institution in Ukraine to connect to the National Bank of Ukraine's (NBU) BankID System on a noncommercial basis, the regulator said in a statement.
The Kyiv Polytechnic Institute, a prominent Ukrainian university, has become the first higher education institution in the country to join the National Bank of Ukraine's (NBU) BankID System without incurring any costs, according to a statement released by the regulator. This achievement was made possible through a collaborative effort with the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine.
Deputy Director for Payment Systems and Innovation Development at the NBU, Olha Vasylieva, announced that the university's students, applicants, and employees will now be able to utilize BankID for authentication purposes when accessing the university's electronic services. This development was facilitated by amendments to the regulation governing the BankID system, which came into effect on January 10, 2026.
As of July 1, 2026, the BankID System had 37 subscriber-identifiers and 117 subscribers, with 102 commercial and 15 noncommercial entities utilizing the service.
