West Virginia Residents can now securely store their mobile ID in their Samsung Wallet on a Samsung Galaxy device and use the credential to verify their identities directly from their mobile phones at TSA checkpoints at participating airports across the country.
The launch of West Virginia mobile ID in the Samsung Wallet will continue to streamline interactions with businesses and various service providers with elevated convenience and security. West Virginia residents can easily access their mobile ID in the Samsung Wallet by tapping their phone near the mobile ID reader or having the mobile ID reader scan the QR code. West Virginians can also continue to access their mobile ID through the free West Virginia Mobile ID app, which IDEMIA built and rolled out for West Virginia in December 2024.
“We’re excited to expand our partnership with Samsung and West Virginia to provide West Virgina residents with another convenient and trusted way to use their mobile ID credentials through the Samsung mobile wallet. This collaboration underscores IDEMIA’s commitment to accelerating the adoption of mobile IDs. Integrating identification credentials into everyday devices like smartphones is a game-changer for digital identity and security. It’s not just about convenience; it’s about empowering residents with seamless and secure access to their credentials whenever they need them,” Rob Gardner, CEO, IDEMIA Civil Identity North America. “With security at the forefront, mobile IDs ensure personal information can only be accessed and shared if the user agrees to.”
The launch of mobile ID in West Virginia demonstrates IDEMIA’s ongoing efforts to advance digital identity and solutions for public and private sector use. Arizona, Delaware, Iowa, Mississippi, and New York are additional states that have rolled out IDEMIA’s mobile ID technology.
