REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Jan. 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Identity & Access Forum invites payment industry professionals to attend its highly anticipated Mobile Driver’s License (mDL) Technology Showcase, an event designed to explore the groundbreaking potential of mDLs in the financial sector and beyond. Mobile driver’s licenses offer tremendous opportunities for combatting fraud, improving operational efficiency and securing transactions while offering users control over their data.
Co-located with the 2025 Identity & Payments Summit in San Diego, the mDL Technology Showcase will take place on February 24, 2025. It will bring together key stakeholders to demonstrate real-world mDL use cases and educate attendees looking to kickstart their mDL implementation journey.

Tickets can be purchased individually or bundled with admission to the Identity & Payments Summit.
Engage and interact with authentic mDLs
Join industry peers as the benefits of mDLs take center stage! The showcase will give attendees an up-close look at how the technology is being used in compliance with the ISO/IEC 18013-5 and 18013-7 standards. Relying parties (RPs) -- including retailers, law enforcement, banks and government agencies-- will get a chance to network with mDL issuers, wallet providers and mDL reader manufacturers to discuss the implementation process based on specific use cases.
The following payments-focused use cases will be demonstrated:
- Banking & Financial Institutions: Online onboarding (IDV, mKYC), in-person customer verification, freeze or unfreeze credit reports
- Retail & Payments: Fraud prevention, buy online pickup in store (BOPIS), loyalty program onboarding, store credit card sign-up
- Age Verification Purchases: Alcohol sales, stadium concessions, cannabis purchases at POS (ID, medical)
“If you want to gain a deeper understanding of the value proposition of mDLs, including their impact on fraud risk, compliance requirements and return on investment (ROI), this is the place to be,” said Sandy Mayfield, managing director of the Identity & Access Forum. “This is not a sales event; it is a collaborative environment where attendees can see how the mDL ecosystem is evolving and shaping the future of secure identity.”
Interactive Opportunities for Participants
Attendees who are interested in leading a use case demonstration can secure a table at the event. Each table (or team) will work collaboratively to define real-world requirements and demonstrate the practical implementation of mDLs. Individual participants can be matched to teams, ensuring that all attendees have the opportunity to contribute.
