Arkansans can now securely and conveniently access their Arkansas Mobile ID from their Google Wallet.
RESTON, Va., Oct. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — IDEMIA Public Security North America, the leading provider of secure and trusted biometric-based solutions, is excited to continue their partnership with the Arkansas Department of Finance and Administration’s (DFA) Division of Driver Services and Motor Vehicles to support its launch of mobile IDs in Google Wallet.
The launch of Arkansas mobile ID in Google Wallet allows Arkansans to securely store their mobile ID in their Google Wallet and present it at participating TSA checkpoints across the nation, including at Little Rock (LIT) and Northwest Arkansas (XNA) airports. Mobile IDs in Google Wallet can also be used for identity check and age verification purposes at participating businesses and venues. New in-app, online, and in-person use cases continue to grow in collaboration with Google’s strong partner ecosystem.
Arkansas residents can add their Arkansas driver’s license or state ID in Google Wallet by opening the Google Wallet app, selecting Add to Wallet and ID Card, and following the on-screen instructions.
As IDEMIA continues their collaboration with Google to launch more mobile IDs in Google Wallet, the launch of the Arkansas mobile ID in Google Wallet reinforces IDEMIA’s commitment to offering security and convenience to state residents across the country through advancing the usage of mobile ID technology.
“I continue to grow excited about the future of mobile ID as we enable another state to give their residents access to a secure, convenient identity credential through Google Wallet,” shared Rob Gardner, CEO, IDEMIA Civil Identity. “This continues to only be the beginning for mobile ID, and I’m proud to offer Arkansas residents another way to use their mobile ID credential through Google Wallet.”
Google Wallet puts the user in control of their digital identity, allowing users to seamlessly verify their identity or age online and in person. Digital ID data is stored encrypted, and information is only shared after review and authentication from the user.
