Students can now use their iPhone or Apple
Watch everywhere they use their campus card
CBORD, the leader in higher education and healthcare campus
technology solutions, today announced mobile credential support for
student ID cards in Apple Wallet, providing students with the
simplicity, convenience and security of using their iPhone and
Apple Watch to get around campus. Students, faculty and staff will
be able to enter facilities and residence halls, use their meal
plan, make purchases on and off campus, attend events, and more
with just their iPhone and Apple Watch.
“CBORD has a long history of market-leading mobile technology,
being the first to bring mobile credentials to campuses a decade
ago with CBORD Mobile ID,” said Jim Hoefflin, president of CBORD.
“And now we are pleased to elevate the student experience further
with the speed and convenience of the next generation of native
mobile wallet technology available on iPhone and Apple Watch.”
Leveraging CBORD’s APIs, CBORD is uniquely able to offer
universities the ability to allow students to add their student IDs
to Apple Wallet through the university app. Universities also have
the flexibility to use the GET CBORD Student App. Campus card
offices can remotely issue, revoke and reactivate mobile
credentials instantly, providing greater security than physical
IDs.
Six leading-edge universities have already entered into service
agreements with CBORD to facilitate a full rollout of digital
credentials natively supported in the Apple Wallet beginning this
fall.
Clemson University, University of San Francisco, University of
Tennessee, Knoxville, University of Vermont, Massachusetts
Institute of Technology and University of Kentucky will implement
this technology to provide a modern campus experience for their
students, faculty and staff.
"As an institution that values innovation, it's important to us
that we are always adapting to the way students use technology to
enhance the campus experience," said Chris Cimino, senior vice
chancellor for finance and administration at the University of
Tennessee, Knoxville. "Being able to access your VolCard on your
mobile device is one of the many ways UT is continuously improving
to meet expectations for a modern campus.”
“We are proud that the University of San Francisco will be one
of the first to offer a complete mobile campus card experience,”
said Jason Rossi, director of campus card and security systems for
University of San Francisco, “particularly the improvement in
service the mobile-based USF One Card is expected to provide.”
CBORD has long been a pioneer in campus card technology and
integrated security solutions. With the addition of mobile
credential support for student ID cards in Apple Wallet, it
delivers the most proven, modern and flexible platform to
leading-edge college, university and healthcare campuses.
