Google Wallet Adds Support for Aadhaar Digital ID in India With Support for In-Person and Remote Verification
Google on Tuesday announced the expansion of its digital identity efforts in India with the rollout of support for Aadhaar credentials in Google Wallet. This feature, as described by the Mountain View-based tech giant, allows users to store a digital version of their Aadhaar card, issued by the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI), on their smartphones. Google says it offers a more convenient way to verify identity without having to carry a physical document.
