Allied Universal company, AMAG Technology, has revealed its company badges will be offered in Google Wallet.
Users can present their Android device to AMAG Technology’s Symmetry Blue reader to unlock a door.
Storing a company badge in Google Wallet allows users to keep everything protected in one place, eliminating the need to remember and carry plastic cards, the company reports.
If the phone needs a charge, the company badge in Google Wallet will still work.
“We are proud to offer company badges in Google Wallet and not only give Android device users easy and safe access to their offices and workspaces, but a convenient way to manage their identity,” said Roland Fournier, Vice President of Product Management, AMAG Technology.
Company badges in Google Wallet operate with AMAG Technology’s Symmetry Wallet platform and integrate with the Symmetry Access Control system.
The user receives an email via Symmetry Wallet with a link to securely authenticate their identity and add the badge to their Google Wallet.
Using AMAG Technology’s provisioning technology, users do not need to download a standalone app from the app store to add the company badge to Google Wallet.
