Say goodbye to bulky wallets and fumbling for your ID! Arizonans can now seamlessly store their driver’s licenses and state IDs in Google Wallet, joining Apple Wallet as the third digital platform available. This innovative move puts Arizona at the forefront of the digital ID revolution, offering residents increased convenience, security, and even faster TSA airport lines.
A Trio of Digital Options:
With Google Wallet now in the mix, Arizonans have three ways to go digital with their IDs:
Arizona Mobile Driver License (MDL): Launched in 2021, the AZ MDL app was the state’s first foray into digital IDs.
Apple Wallet: In 2022, Apple Wallet joined the party, offering iPhone users a way to store their Arizona IDs digitally.
Google Wallet: As of October, Android users can finally join the fun and add their IDs to Google Wallet.
More Than Just Convenience:
The Arizona Department of Transportation Motor Vehicle Division (ADOT MVD) is committed to providing residents with secure and convenient options. Their motto, “Out of the line and safely on the road,” reflects their dedication to reducing wait times and streamlining processes. Adding digital IDs to Google Wallet aligns perfectly with this mission.
While presenting your digital ID at select TSA checkpoints is a breeze, remember to carry your physical ID for other situations, including interactions with law enforcement.
