What is eID-Me?
eID-Me is a secure digital identity smartphone app. It digitizes and stores government-issued identity and self-managed identity information on your smartphone, which serves as a secure and private backup of your identity information.
eID-Me is not currently a substitute for legal ID. Our goal is to improve access to services that require verified identity, including government, financial, and more. We're developing partnerships to get that done. Having eID-Me up and running is necessary for that process because it demonstrates eID-Me's viability as a verified digital ID.
