Google Wallet is About to Get Digital Driver’s Licenses in Beta - Droid Life

When Google announced the new Google Wallet back in May, digital IDs were one of the major new features they highlighted as one of the reasons for re-launching the name “Wallet.” While not supported at first, the idea was that one day, probably far down the road, we might be able to add a digital driver’s license or state ID to Google Wallet and truly ditch our physical bifold.

In an update that appears to be rolling out with Google Play Services v48.22 for December, Google has suggested that it is going to open up digital IDs (driver’s license and state ID) as a Google Wallet beta feature.

We aren’t sure if there will also be an update to Google Wallet or a new way to opt-in to Google Wallet’s beta track to make this beta magic happen, but I’d imagine that to be the case.
