Google Wallet isn’t just for storing digital versions of your credit cards. You can also use the app for storing tickets, passes, loyalty cards, and more. Earlier this month, Google added support for mobile credentials on the Wear OS app. Now this feature has gained support from its first provider.
The parent company of Schlage Lock (Allegion) has announced it is the first provider to take advantage of Google Wallet’s mobile credentials on Wear OS. Starting now, you will be able to use Schlage mobile credentials on your Wear OS device, in addition to using them in the Android app.
