Here are just a couple of ways LA Wallet is a useful tool during the current quarantine.
Diminish the Spread of COVID-19
LA Wallet has a strict hands-free/no-touch policy. This means that no one is allowed to touch or hold your mobile device. Physical licenses can carry and transfer the virus. LA Wallet offers multiple functions to verify a person’s identity and age. Learn more about VerifyYou™ and other validation procedures.
Home Delivery of Age-Restricted Goods
Due to the mandatory quarantines set by our state and federal governments, more businesses are offering home delivery of goods and services. This includes alcohol and other age-restricted goods. All businesses are required to check identification for these transactions. With VerifyYou™ Pro, businesses can track all deliveries and age-verifications. Learn more in this video.
