Do you want to become an influencer on digital public services and participate in testing the technical solutions of Digital Iceland before they are published?

Digital Iceland's vision is to simplify people's lives, which makes the user experience a key element. Therefore, Digital Iceland seeks influencers willing to review new digital solutions and services.

By becoming an influencer, you have an opportunity to influence the development of digital public services.

How does this work?

  1. You register as an influencer with a name, email, and ID number (kennitala) in the form below.

  2. When a new digital service is ready for review, an e-mail is sent to the Influencers.

  3. Influencers test the digital service and reply to the e-mail with comments about what works well as what could be improved.

  4. Digital services are further developed following feedback from influencers.

  5. Digital services are made accessible to the public.

An influencer can stop participating at any time by sending an e-mail to island@island.is.

What is being tested?

All the digital services that Digital Iceland develops in collaboration with agencies.

  • The influencer is seeking public services for which a review is sought for real, not in a test environment.

  • Digital services such as the applications of public service.

  • New features on Ísland.is or in Ísland.is app.

  • Information in Ísland.is app and/or on Ísland.is My pages.

  • Whether information is sufficient or incomplete

  • Various other things related to Digital Iceland development.

Note that not all services in reviewing applies to everyone, but nevertheless, the entire group of influencers will always be notified. An example of that is a digital application for parental leave where it is only available to expecting parents as well as discount in Loftbrú.

Why does e-mail need to be used?

When testing new digital services, an email is sent to a group of influencers with further details.

Why register social security number (kennitala)?

Influencers are granted increased rights linked to social security numbers. This is done with feature flagging that requires identification and is only accessible to pre-registered influencers.
