Google Wallet

In select states, you can add your Driver's License to Google Wallet and use it at participating TSA checkpoints and now in remote verification scenarios. Google also has a beta feature allowing people to add a passport to their wallet creating a credential that can be utilized at TSA.

User Flow

To see an example: watch this video.

The Google Wallet verification flow works on mobile and desktop. On desktop, users are presented a QR code which they scan in order to open the Google Wallet application. On mobile, the user clicks a button which deep-links them to their Google Wallet application. In both cases, the user is taken to their mobile app where they complete a biometric authentication and consent to share the requested data.
