Google Wallet will start beta testing a digital ID soon that works at TSA checkpoints in almost half the country.

The ID is encrypted, so you’ll need a passcode or fingerprint to access and share it.

Users can also access passes from the web at wallet.google.com in addition to using Android devices.
