AMAG Launches Wallet-Enabled Ecosystem for Seamless Mobile Credentialing

 

As mobile credentials increasingly replace traditional keys and cards, organizations are grappling with how to streamline access across a diverse user base. With technologies like NFC and digital wallets gaining traction, the conversation is shifting from “if” mobile access is the future to “how” it should be delivered. According to Juniper Research, digital wallet users are expected to exceed 5.2 billion globally by 2026, making it clear that the wallet-based ecosystem is becoming the new standard for digital identity and access management.

So, as more companies roll out wallet-compatible credentials, one question looms large: What makes a wallet-enabled access ecosystem work for users, for integrators, and at scale?

In this episode of AMAG Asks, host Kyle Gordon sits down with Matt MacIntosh, Product Manager for Hosted Solutions at AMAG Technology, to explore the launch of AMAG’s wallet credential and the broader shift toward an appless, mobile-first access control ecosystem.

In this episode:

  • Why NFC-based wallet credentials are gaining adoption over Bluetooth-based mobile credentials

  • How AMAG’s approach to appless provisioning reduces friction for end users and integrators alike

  • What sets AMAG’s wallet-enabled ecosystem apart in terms of scalability and integration with identity management tools
