  • Smart Device - Any iPhone, iPad, Android, (etc) with the app can scan a Digital ID using VerifyYou.
  • 2D Barcode Scanner - Most existing POS scanners can verify a Digital ID with the app's barcode feature.
  • Optical Check - Depending on your company policy, if scanners are not required, you may choose to simply visually check a Digital ID the same way you look at a physical ID.

While many existing POS scanners can function with the app’s barcode feature, some scanning technologies may not, such as:

  • Magnetic Scanners 
  • 3D or Laser Scanners

In these cases, you can still use your Smart Device that scan using VerifyYou or perform an Optical Check to verify the Digital ID.

  • When viewing a digital license on LA Wallet, the screen will display GREEN for valid results or RED for invalid results.
  • For additional security measures with an LA Wallet digital ID, you can press and hold the ID to display the state security seal, or tap the Refresh button to request real-time results from the OMV database.
  • If scanning with a 2D Barcode Scanner, tap the View button to display the barcode from the back of the ID. The information will display on your scanner the same as when you scan a physical license. For additional verification, you can also utilize any of the digital methods above.
