Oklahoma Signals Expansion of iPhone Wallet IDs, Joining a Multi-State Push

Oklahoma is moving toward letting residents carry digital versions of driver’s licenses and state IDs in Apple Wallet, with a 2026 House bill enabling mobile IDs and signs of Oklahoma IDs in Apple’s backend. Other states—Connecticut, Kentucky, Mississippi, Utah, and Virginia—are planning Wallet support, and Utah and Virginia have already shown backend indicators. Digital IDs are accepted at some TSA checkpoints and select venues; where Wallet support isn’t available, iOS 26 will allow adding a passport to Apple Wallet as a digital ID.

"Expansion of Google Wallet to Include More State IDs in Coming Months"

Google Wallet is set to expand its support for state IDs in the next few months, with a "pipeline" of additional states coming online, according to Dong Min Kim, director of product management for Google Wallet. The challenge lies in the differing approaches of state DMVs, making it more difficult than standardizing mobile payments. Google's goal is to virtualize physical wallets, including credit and debit cards, transit and event tickets, and even vaccination records. Beyond the US, Google is also working to add similar support for other countries.

Michigan will begin issuing new license plates, driver's licenses, and state IDs in 2024. The state will reintroduce the green and white "Water Wonderland" license plate, similar to one issued in 1963.
