If that’s not enough, Google Wallet will streamline the travel check-in process. You’ll soon be able to receive boarding passes or train tickets directly in Google’s Messages app (as long as you have RCS messaging enabled) and save it to your Wallet, helpful for exchanging passes between family and friends or receiving confirmations from your booking agency via text. This service kicks off in Vietnam with Vietnam Airlines, and those in Spain can use it with transit rails operated by Renfe. In parallel, Google is working on digitizing passes in more countries, with Germany pegged as the next testing ground.
Like reserving tables at your favorite restaurants? You’ll be able to add your reservation to Google Wallet immediately upon receiving the confirmation through Messages. Google namedrops TagMe, a restaurant management solution, as an early adopter for this functionality. Hopefully, services like OpenTable won’t take long to catch on.
Google Wallet support is also expanding to corporate spaces. Digital corporate passes will allow employees to access key buildings, rooms, and systems without lugging their passes and badges everywhere. Those can be quite annoying to carry daily after they stack up, but it’s still probably much easier than lobbying for IT to adopt the change within your lifetime.
