Login support for UC services

UC offers several login methods for you as a customer. Below you can read more about the login methods we offer.

To access credit information related to personal information, you need to log in using two-factor authentication. As an example you always have to use two-factor authentication to access Order a UC or UC Spektra. The requirement to log in using two-factor authentication applies to the entire credit reporting industry.

By using BankID you no longer need to keep track of usernames and passwords. You use the same security solution, that is, your BankID, for many online services, no matter what authority or company that provides the service.

If you are an existing UC customer you will find information regarding how to log in to UC below.

Why do I have to login using strong/two-factor authentication?

The Swedish Data Protection Authority has set higher demands on the entire credit reporting industry regarding access to personal information on the web. You have to log in using strong authentication to access credit information at uc.se. This means that you cannot log in using only username and password to access credit information.

Our strong authentication login methods are BankID, Mobile BankID and two-factor authentication. Two-factor authentication can be, for an example, something you know (your password) and something you have (your smartphone or YubiKey).
