It is possible to create a Volvo ID from the car, My Volvo2 or the Volvo On Call app3. Certain functions and services require that the car is registered to a personal Volvo ID. Registering the Volvo ID to the car makes a wide range of Volvo services available directly from the car.
Examples of services:
- My Volvo - A personal web page for you and your car.
- Volvo On Call* - Volvo ID is used when logging in to the Volvo On Call app.
- Send to Car - Makes it possible to send an address from an Internet map service directly to the car.
- Book Service and Repair - Register your preferred workshop/dealer in My Volvo to be able to book service directly from the car.

Advantages of Volvo ID
- One user name and one password to access online services, i.e. only one username and one password to remember.
- If the username/password for a service (e.g. Volvo On Call) is changed, then it is also changed automatically for other services (e.g. My Volvo).
