Shinhan Card "Full Implementation of Mobile Driver's License in Operations"
Convenience and Security Enhanced
Shinhan Card will utilize mobile driver's licenses as identity verification credentials across its operations. The procedure of exchanging physical ID cards will be eliminated, improving convenience and security.
Shinhan Card announced on the 14th that it will use mobile driver's licenses in this way.
The mobile driver's license is issued on an individual's smartphone according to the Road Traffic Act. It is a national ID with the same legal effect as the existing plastic driver's license. It can be issued through the Ministry of the Interior and Safety's 'Mobile ID' application (app). For financial transactions, only the mobile driver's license via this app is valid.
Customers can present the mobile license just like the existing license when identity verification is required by Shinhan Card. When using the customer desk, scanning the QR code displayed on the tablet PC screen at each counter with the Mobile ID app automatically sends the ID information to Shinhan Card's computer system. Since separate procedures such as copying the ID are omitted, there is no need to hand over the physical ID to staff, making it convenient and safe.
On mobile and online channels, there is no need to take a photo of the driver's license and register it as before. By clicking the Mobile ID icon on each service screen requiring ID presentation in the 'Shinhan Play' app or website, the Mobile ID app automatically launches. After identity verification, the Ministry of the Interior and Safety's ID information is automatically received by Shinhan Card's computer system.
