Apple's Digital ID Roll Out
Canadian students can now add digital IDs to the Wallet app. The rollout will begin at the University of New Brunswick and Sheridan College, according to CNBC.
Jennifer Bailey, Apple's VP of Apple Pay, said they would work with more schools in the United States this year. They are preparing to introduce digital IDs in Canada to provide a more convenient and secure way to get around the campus.
