$GOOGL Wallet is rolling out a new integration that will make it easier to participate in the TSA PreCheck Touchless ID program - the first digital wallet to participate in program
With this integration, which is rolling out over the coming weeks, users who have TSA PreCheck & are flying on any of the 100 participating airlines will be able to opt in once w/ the help of Google Wallet.
Previously, users had to manually upload their passport info for each airline
To participate, travelers check in w/ a participating airline, add their boarding pass to Google Wallet, click the “Get started” button that is shown to eligible travelers w/ an eligible digital ID, & authorize sharing their digital ID & boarding pass in Google Wallet w/ TSA. TSA then confirms enrollment & sends a success code to Google Wallet, & Google Wallet updates the traveler’s boarding pass w/ the TSA PreCheck Touchless ID indicator
