Spintly has announced a new integration with Apple Wallet, allowing employees to use their iPhone or Apple Watch as a digital access badge to unlock office spaces, turnstiles, elevators, and amenity areas. This enhancement offers a more secure and convenient way for building administrators to manage access and for employees to gain entry without the need for physical cards or traditional access apps.
1. How the Integration Works
- Employees can add their employee badge to Apple Wallet through Spintly’s app after a simple setup process.
- Once added, the badge allows employees to access office buildings and secured spaces with just a tap of their iPhone or Apple Watch.
- The integration eliminates the need for physical key cards, making the process faster and more efficient.
2. Enhanced User Experience
- With Express Mode, employees can use their badge without unlocking their device, offering a quick and frictionless access experience.
- Power Reserve mode ensures that employees can still access spaces even if their device is running low on battery.
- This contactless solution enhances convenience, reducing the need for traditional plastic access cards and improving overall workflow.
3. Privacy and Security
- Spintly’s integration takes full advantage of Apple’s privacy and security features. Employee badge data is never shared with Apple or stored on Apple’s servers.
- If a device is misplaced, the Find My app allows the owner to lock their device and track its location for additional security.
4. Benefits for Building Administrators
- Administrators can easily manage access permissions, granting or restricting entry for employees quickly and securely.
- The integration streamlines the process of onboarding new employees, who no longer need to wait for physical key cards to be issued.
Spintly’s integration with Apple Wallet is a game-changer for both building administrators and employees, offering a more secure, convenient, and contactless access control solution. This innovation simplifies the access management process while ensuring privacy and security, making it an ideal solution for modern workplaces.
