​
The signer receives the transaction and logs in to their DigiD account and if the BSN number matches they are able to view the document and proceed with the signing.

If other verification methods have been added in the transaction, these will follow after viewing the document.

​Authentication: Phone number (SMS)

With this method the sender of the transaction has to fill out mobile phone number of the signer before sending out the transaction.
