CBORD expands mobile credential support to include Android phones

CBORD, the provider of higher education and healthcare campus technology solutions, announced expansion of mobile credential support to include Android phones.

Students, faculty and staff on participating campuses can now use an Android phone to conveniently, safely and securely access campus buildings, purchase meals and more.

This technology enables universities to provide a secure campus-issued credential that can be remotely and instantly issued, revoked and reactivated within the CBORD ID card software. This helps institutions prevent fraud while offering convenience and safer, healthier transactions.

CBORD has extended these capabilities to Android phones by engaging its partner ecosystem - including Google, Allegion, NXP Semiconductors and HID Global - to deliver the Android solution.
