Munich, April 17, 17 Abr. (News Aktuell) - .- Elatec today announced it is bringing employee badge in Apple Wallet to its customers, enabling an organization’s employees or tenants to unlock access to locations and devices with a simple tap of their iPhone or Apple Watch. Powered by Elatec’s Mobile Credential Manager software, which works hand-in-hand with Elatec’s universal RFID readers, this brings together the world’s most powerful and versatile readers with the best mobile access system available.
Employee badge in Apple Wallet helps deliver a convenient and contactless experience for users. Once enabled, employee badge in Apple Wallet allows users to seamlessly and securely add their employee badge to Apple Wallet, and hold their iPhone or Apple Watch near an NFC reader to unlock office doors, turnstiles, elevators and key card-protected amenity spaces — eliminating the need to open an app or present a traditional, plastic access key.
With Express Mode, employees do not need to unlock their device to use their badge in Apple Wallet. If an iPhone needs to be charged, employees can still use their device to access their office or amenity areas with Power Reserve.
Employees can add their employee badge to Apple Wallet after an initial set-up through the Elatec Access app. Unlike the physical cards, there is no wait time for gaining building credentials and access for new employees. The Elatec Mobile Credential Manager allows easy centralized management of passes, including issuing, revoking and auditing capabilities. Administrators can manage access permissions in real time, adapting quickly to security needs. The software easily integrates with existing access control hardware by Elatec, ensuring a smooth transition to Apple Wallet passes.
Employee badges in Apple Wallet are stored on a user’s device and take full advantage of the privacy and security built into iPhone and Apple Watch. When an employee uses a badge in Apple Wallet, it is never shared with Apple or stored on Apple servers. If their iPhone or Apple Watch is misplaced, the owner of the device can promptly use the Find My app to lock the device and help locate it.
Mobile Credentialing
Mobile credentialing is revolutionizing the access industry. Smartphone-based badges are more convenient for end users, and are simpler and more cost-effective for organizations.
With the new Mobile Credentialing System for Apple Wallet, Elatec has made the move to mobile even easier. The combination of universal readers and mobile credentialing software makes the transition to mobile passes simple and seamless.
Elatec has been a leader in the transition to mobile access technologies. Their universal TWN4 multi-technology readers support both traditional radio frequency identification (RFID) badges and smartphone-based credentialing systems for iOS using Near-Field Communication (NFC).
