The recycling centre, for residents only.

At the entrance, you show your recycling centre pass from the wallet. In seconds, staff see that someone lives in the municipality, and nothing more.

Starting point

Today: a sticker, a card or showing your ID.

Many municipalities accept waste and recyclables at their recycling centre only from their own population, because they pay for the disposal. The check relies on stickers, plastic cards or a look at the address on an identity card. Stickers get passed on, cards get lost, and looking at the ID shows staff more than they need to know.

Process

With VeriGate

Once: getting the pass

  1. Request the passAt the counter or on your online portal. The municipality compares the residence with its register of residents. Once the e-ID is available, the person identifies themselves with it.
  2. Add it to the walletA QR code or link, one scan, and the recycling centre pass is in the wallet.

Every visit: at the entrance

  1. Scan the QR code at the entranceStaff start the check in the console, and the tablet shows a QR code. The resident scans it with the swiyu Wallet.
  2. ShareThe wallet shows what is requested: “Resident in” and the validity. One tap to share.
  3. Drive inThe tablet shows “Valid”. Someone who has moved away has a revoked pass, and the tablet shows that.
What staff see

Lives in Musterwil, valid. Nothing more.

The pass holds more details than the entrance needs. The check requests only two of them, and the resident shares them personally.

The pass is bound to the person's wallet. It cannot be passed on like a sticker.

Staff see no more than necessary, and the resident decides what to show.

Settled when someone moves

The municipality revokes the pass. Nothing needs returning.
