Business Wallet
The Credenco Business Wallet is a complete platform for managing verifiable credentials within your organization. It enables you to establish digital trust by issuing, holding, and verifying credentials. Whether you need to prove your organization's identity, issue certificates to partners, or verify incoming claims from third parties, the Business Wallet provides the tools to do so. It supports industry standards like OpenID4VC and W3C Verifiable Credentials, making it interoperable with a wide range of wallets and ecosystems. This documentation will help you get started and guide you through the available features and APIs.
The wallet is built around three core modules:
Issuer
Create digital credentials, like certificates or identity proofs, for other persons, organizations or products.
Holder
Store all your organizations credentials in one place. Keep them safe, organized, and ready to share when needed.
Verifier
Securely receive and validate credentials of persons, organizations and products, ensuring authenticity and trust.
Use Cases
To get a better understanding of how the Business Wallet can be used in practice, we have prepared a few use cases for you:
- BIG Register — Verify healthcare professional registrations using verifiable credentials.
- Mortgage — Streamline the mortgage application process by exchanging trusted credentials between parties.
- Supplier Onboarding — Simplify supplier qualification by requesting and verifying corporate credentials.
Each use case walks you through a real-world scenario and shows how the Holder, Issuer, and Verifier modules work together.

Deployment
The Business Wallet is available as a fully managed SaaS service, hosted and maintained by Credenco. For most organizations this is the preferred option — no infrastructure to manage, automatic updates, and ready to use within minutes.
However, some enterprises have strict requirements around data residency, compliance, or network isolation and prefer to keep everything within their own infrastructure. For these situations, we offer an on-premise deployment option that allows you to run the Business Wallet entirely within your own data center. You retain full control over your own data and infrastructure while benefiting from the same features and APIs.
See the On-premise Deployment section for installation instructions and configuration details.
