The University of Victoria has introduced a contactless digital ID card. Students, faculty, and staff with compatible devices can download the ONEcard to their digital wallet and use it for transactions on campus such as buying food, borrowing books from the library, shopping at the UVic bookstore, and accessing the gym. “Postsecondary students in today’s world expect a mobile-first experience when it comes to buying goods and accessing services on campus,” said UVic Senior Director of Campus Engagement Jim Forbes. “We’re excited to be able to provide this technology to modernize and enhance day-to-day transactions.” Physical ONECards will still be required for exam identification.
