Card, mobile credential, payment and security
Transact + CBORD’s latest version of the Transact IDX® cloud-based transaction system includes integration with the company’s popular mobile credential offering. The update is available now, and clients can leverage these enhancements without additional hardware investments or complex migrations.
The first institution to rollout mobile ID with IDX is Northeast Mississippi Community College (NEMCC). In just the first two weeks, nearly 40% of the students adopted the new credential.
"We jumped at the chance to be the first school to launch [mobile credential] on the IDX platform," said Chris Murphy, Vice President of Finance at Northeast Mississippi Community College. "Transact + CBORD worked closely with us to scale and adapt the system to fit our needs and resources, ensuring our students could benefit from the same innovative mobile credential technology used at much larger universities."
It was always our intention to offer mobile credential in IDX, but we needed to ensure it was delivered in the appropriate priority for clients.
Prior to this release, IDX supported an array of physical credentials, but it did not support a mobile option. Now, however, students at institutions using IDX can add their campus ID directly to Apple and Google Wallets.
“The journey we took with IDX was to identify key functionality and place it in priority order to serve the most clients with the most features in a logical progression,” says Kent Pawlak, Sr. Director, Product Strategy, Transact + CBORD.
He says the development team first created a solid foundation for managing cardholders and credentials with stored value accounts. Next, they added enhanced meal plan functionality.
“It was always our intention to offer mobile credential in IDX,” explains Pawlak. “But we needed to ensure it was delivered in the appropriate priority for clients to achieve the best value.”
In addition to mobile ID integration, the update also includes new features designed to reduce administrative overhead, improve campus services, and give students a better experience.
One major upgrade is the incorporation of Transact’s popular eAccounts mobile app for iOS and Android. eAccounts provides one place for students to check balances, make deposits, provision credentials, and report lost cards.
Other key upgrades include:
A Transact + CBORD announcement says the NEMCC deployment positions the company, “as the leading provider currently serving community colleges with live mobile credential solutions.”
This is the seventh community college to adopt the technology.
It proves that mobile credentials can be scaled for institutions of any size, with or without large residential populations.
"It proves that advanced mobile credential technology can be successfully scaled for institutions of any size, with or without large residential populations," says Rasheed Behrooznia, EVP and GM of Campus ID and Commerce for Transact + CBORD.
According to the company, future updates to IDX will add features like AI assistance, advanced reporting, guest deposits, and entitlement tools.
When Apple released iOS 26 last week, a highly anticipated feature – the ability to add U.S. passports to the Wallet app – was notably absent from the update.
However, Apple has since updated its website to provide clarification regarding the timeline for this functionality stating, “digital ID will be coming later this year with U.S. passports only.”
This suggests that the feature may be introduced with either iOS 26.1, expected in late October, or iOS 26.2, anticipated for early to mid-December, says 9to5mac.com.
They could use Wallet as their ID at any mobile-enabled airport checkpoint across the country and even in some retail locations for age verification. They will not, however, be able to use it for international travel.
According to Apple’s description of the new iOS version, users can, “create a digital ID in Wallet using your U.S. passport. It can be used at TSA checkpoints, in apps, and in person.”
Digital ID has been part of the Apple Wallet ecosystem for years, but implementation has been slow. This is because state governments must get on board with digital driver’s licenses. Many states have found the effort to make bring this to fruition is immense, and the desire to see it through has often waned.
Currently, only about a dozen states and territories in the United States offer digital IDs through Apple Wallet.
The addition of passport support, however, represents a significant expansion of digital ID for Americans. Once launched, any iPhone user running iOS 26 and holding a valid U.S. passport will be able to add it as a digital ID in the Wallet app.
This means they could use Wallet as their ID at any mobile-enabled airport checkpoint across the country and even in some retail locations for age verification. At this point, however, they will not be able to use it for international travel.
Still, it is a first step – though a significant one – toward digital ID in the U.S.
College athletic departments are more than just sports programs – they are complex business operations that manage major events, high-traffic facilities, and thousands of student and fan interactions. Many, however, still manage operations using a series of disparate systems for critical processes like payments, ticketing, access control, and reporting. According to TouchNet’s article Rethinking Commerce and Access in College Athletics, this outdated approach is no longer sustainable.
“Athletic departments aren’t just playing games – they’re running enterprises,” the article states. “To meet the growing demands of students, fans, leadership and financial stakeholders, they need to modernize the way they manage commerce and access.”
Most athletic departments juggle dozens of commerce and access points for students, fans, and athletes. Too often, each area is managed by its own system, leading to inconsistent user experiences and high operating costs.
When access and commerce systems are integrated with the broader institutional ecosystem, everything from accounting to student engagement becomes easier to manage.
While the rest of campus IT systems have adopted integrated platforms, athletics often operates as an island due to separate budgets, vendors, and leadership structures.
As demands and opportunities rise, athletic departments must evolve. Modern solutions can unify payments, campus ID access, ecommerce, and reporting under one system. This can simplify financial tracking and reconciliation, streamline event and facility management, improve security and consistency.
Overview of key TouchNet stats
“When access and commerce systems are integrated with the broader institutional ecosystem, everything from accounting to student engagement becomes easier to manage,” the article explains.
By breaking down digital silos, athletic departments can connect to the broader campus infrastructure, reducing costs and complexity. The same commerce and access solutions used by campus card, auxiliary service, and finance departments can transform athletics’ operations.
The article closes stating, “investing in connected infrastructure isn’t just an IT decision, it’s a strategic one.”
The head of University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill’s ID program spoke with CampusIDNews about the decision to require all students, faculty, and staff to use mobile credentials. Unlike many institutions that allow individuals to choose between a mobile ID or physical card, Chapel Hill adopted a mobile-first approach to streamline access and align with sustainability goals.
“On campus we are mobile first, which means that is your requirement. You get your mobile credential – you don’t get anything else,” says Melinda Bakken, Director of Campus Services and Person ID at UNC Chapel Hill.
Physical cards are still provided for rare circumstances, such as secure laboratory environments where phones are prohibited or for police officers who need backup access in case of phone failure.
Bakken explains that the mobile requirement was motivated by UNC’s “three zeros” initiative, which includes reducing waste by eliminating the routine issuance of plastic cards.
In addition to sustainability, the shift has also enhanced security and reduced card sharing, particularly in dining halls.
At least once a day someone will come and tell us that they have to have a physical card. They say 'I'm going non-digital.' I say, no problem, show me your canceled phone bill.
“We used to have situations where students would drop their card down [from the second floor] to a friend after swiping in,” Bakken says. “You’re not going to drop your phone. Most people will barely give you their phone to look at.”
While the transition has been largely positive, some students and staff have expressed concerns. Some simply prefer having a tangible ID while others want it as a souvenir of their college years. To address these needs, Bakken is exploring commemorative cards made from sustainable materials.

TRANSCRIPT
On campus we are mobile first, which means that is your requirement. You get your mobile credential – you don't get anything else.
We do of course have always special cases. We have our labs, our BSL3 labs and BSL2 labs, where you are not allowed to bring a phone into the laboratory. They must have a physical card to bring and badge in.
Our police officers also get both just in case there is an instance where they have phone damage. We still want them to be able to get in, protect, do whatever they need to do.
And then of course animal labs, which we don't talk about.
I came to the decision to be mobile required because it would save on plastic. At UNC we are trying to be three zeros.
Of course, you know, there are always the caveats. There are special cases, but I think it's a good move for the campus and it supports our mission.
At least once a day someone will come and tell us that they have to have a physical card.
We are considering a commemorative card, and I think that's a good plan for us. I want to look into possibility of getting more sustainable products in order to print those cards.
Sometimes it is needed, for example, we actually just had a case where a Spanish visa was needed and the requirement online is that there is physical card, it cannot be a screen print. A physical card has to be copied three times and sent to the consulate.
He had to send a copy of his UNC one-card student card to the consulate in order to get approved for a student visa.
Some of the other ones that we have are, I don't want my phone anymore, I'm going non-digital. I say, no problem, show me your canceled phone bill and I'm happy to take care of you.
I won't say all, but some people are just kind of giving an excuse because they want that physical representation.
I've actually gone to a number of sessions and meetings about doing a commemorative card, and I think that's a good plan for us. I want to look into possibility of getting more sustainable products in order to print those cards.
I think going mobile is a great idea for other campuses because are connected to that phone. They always have it. They don't lose it. They don't even lend it out.
So it stops some of the sharing in places like dining halls.
They do have their concerns like 'What if my battery dies?' I'm actually working on a solution for that too with a power bank vending machine.
We used to have actually a situation where the student would go up the escalator and then they would drop the card down to their friend.
You're not going to drop your phone. You're not going to get in. Most people will barely give you their phone to look at. So, I think it is a good solution.
With mobile credentials, it's really exciting when you see the students getting excited about it. The first experience I had is when we were actually testing, and we went to the gym to test the readers.
We were not supposed to be telling the students yet, but he was at the front desk and saw it, and he was so excited about it. That's the thing that I enjoy about it when they get excited and pumped for using it.
They do have their concerns. What if my battery dies? What if this? What if that?
I'm actually working on a solution for that too with a power bank vending machine.
We're trying our best to help with all the concerns.
In today’s rapidly evolving educational landscape, understanding student behavior has become essential for improving learning outcomes and offering personalized support. A new study combines large language models (LLMs) with data from multiple campus sources to gain deeper insights into how students’ daily habits relate to academic performance. By analyzing student information system data, dining transactions, and exam scores in tandem, this system could provide a new tool to identify at-risk students early and improve educational interventions.
Traditional methods of analyzing student behavior often focus on isolated data sources, such as exam results or campus card usage. But this study, An Intelligent Educational System: Analyzing Student Behavior and Academic Performance Using Multi-Source Data, integrates multiple data streams, including demographic information, test scores, and more than 375,000 campus card transactions. The goal is to uncover hidden patterns linking daily behaviors, like dining habits, with academic performance.
Future studies could broaden the approach by integrating additional behavioral indicators, such as library visits, dormitory access logs, participation in campus events, or online learning activity.
The research team developed an AI-driven agent powered by LLMs that uses time-series analysis to track changes in both student behavior and academic outcomes. Though the data for the study was anonymized, the agent could ultimately produce individualized reports for teachers and parents, summarizing progress, behavioral trends, and potential warning signs. This would allow for data-driven decision-making, helping educators intervene before students fall behind.
For example, if a student’s dining patterns shift dramatically alongside declining exam scores, the system can flag potential challenges such as stress, health issues, or disengagement, prompting timely outreach from faculty or advisors.
At the core of this system is a meticulously constructed dataset drawn from three sources:
By fusing these diverse data sources, the research team created a resource that supports predictive modeling. When evaluated against traditional models, this new LLM-powered system demonstrated high accuracy and consistency in generating behavioral insights.
The study highlights the transformative potential of intelligent agents and LLMs in education. By providing accurate, interpretable reports, the system empowers universities to detect risks early, improve student outcomes, and make smarter, data-driven decisions.
For example, if a student’s dining patterns shift dramatically alongside declining exam scores, the system can flag potential challenges such as stress, health issues, or disengagement, prompting timely outreach.
However, the researchers acknowledge its current limitations. The dataset was drawn from a single college within Xinjiang Normal University, which may limit its applicability across other institutions. Additionally, the focus on exam scores and dining data captures only a small slice of student life.
They note that future studies could broaden this approach by integrating additional behavioral indicators, such as library visits, dormitory access logs, participation in campus events, or online learning activity. Expanding these data streams would provide a more comprehensive picture of how students engage with their educational environment.
This research marks a step forward in connecting everyday student behaviors with academic success, proving that when diverse data streams are intelligently analyzed, they can unlock valuable insights to guide the future of education.

Three deployments of campuswide access control and mobile credentials were successfully launched by Acre Security, a provider of both on-premises and cloud-native physical security solutions. Two of them – the University of Virginia and George Mason University – were done in partnership with transaction system provider Atrium.
Across the three institutions, nearly 70,000 students can use a single credential – a physical card, mobile device, or biometric – for access to residence halls, academic buildings, and other facilities. In addition, the same credential enables a host of privilege controls in areas such as libraries and rec centers as well as payments in dining facilities, bookstores, and retail locations.
At George Mason and University of Virginia, Atrium-powered mobile credentials are elevating the student experience and increasing security.
The platform controls access to all campus facilities, but it also provides administrators with real-time visibility for threat detection, emergency management, and campus-wide or zone-specific lockdowns during active threats. Digital mustering provides automated tracking during evacuations and shelter-in-place situations.
One of Acre’s differentiators is that we offer both cloud-native and on-premises systems so that institutions can choose the architecture that best fits their requirements
“One of Acre’s differentiators is that we offer both cloud-native and on-premises systems so that institutions can choose the architecture that best fits their infrastructure and security requirements,” says Acre Security’s CEO Kumar Sokka.
The company says its roadmap includes AI-powered anomaly detection for proactive threats, enhanced biometric options, integration with campus transportation and off-campus services, and advanced visitor and contractor management.
These campuses add to the two companies’ growing list of shared clients. Prior implementations include University of Utah, Ferris State University, College of William & Mary, Longwood University, and Palm Beach State College.
“Acre is one of Atrium's valued PACS partners, bringing deep expertise in access control and security solutions,” says David McQuillin, VP Sales, Co-Founder, Atrium. “We have a powerful, proven connection with AccessIt! and are working with them to build a similar connection to their cloud native Acre Access platform.”
Acre and Atrium at George Mason UniversityGeorge Mason has been an Atrium client since 2013. The campus uses Acre’s on-premises AccessIt! solution for campuswide access control.
According to McQuillin, they have a powerful two-way API connection between the Atrium and Acre platforms.
The campus uses HID’s mobile credentials and readers. They also have locks from Assa Abloy and dormakaba as well as IrisID biometric readers.
The University of Virginia selected Atrium in a competitive process in 2024. Today, Atrium provides the traditional array of transaction system functions, an omnichannel point of sale system, ID card production, and mobile credentials.
UVA is Atrium’s first Allegion mobile credential implementation, it supports both Apple and Google Wallet, and the institution owns their encryption keys.

“We partnered with A-Tech, a leading access control VAR in Virginia, and led UVA through a process in which they selected Acre’s AccessIt!” explains McQuillin.
The campus uses Allegion readers and Schlage locks. They also have facial and iris recognition readers from Princeton Identity.
In today’s landscape, campus safety requires more than just physical access.
“What’s needed is an intelligent ecosystem that protects students from both traditional and emerging threats," says Jeff Groom, Director of Engineering AI at Acre Security. "Our AI capabilities are designed to identify unusual patterns … and the platform continuously learns and adapts to each institution's unique security landscape."
For Atrium, these implementations show the diversity of their mobile credential and access control capabilities. McQuillin calls it their ‘one size fits one’ philosophy that ensures each client gets the best solution for their campus.
He explains it this way: “UVA had a large existing investment in Allegion readers and Schlage locks, so they decided that using Allegion as the mobile credential provider was best for them. GMU had a large investment in HID credentials, HID readers, and Assa locks so it was best for them to go with HID mobile credentials.”
Advancements in credentials, biometrics, and access control system and security capabilities are improving life for students at University of Virginia, George Mason University, and Rockhurst University. But it is not just these three institutions. It is occurring across the country as institutions work to increase safety and student satisfaction.
When we hire student workers in campus card offices or other auxiliaries, the obvious benefit is financial support. But as the story of one Michigan State University student shows, the true value of student employment extends far beyond a paycheck.
In an editorial in The State News, one student describes how on-campus employment shaped her in ways she’d never expected.
She began her campus job at the Spartan Greens Turf Complex expecting little more than learning how to check campus IDs as students arrived to participate in intramurals. Instead, she quickly discovered that her job taught her responsibility, independence, and organization. By managing time, budgeting paychecks, and working with others, she developed life skills she hadn’t anticipated.
Campus jobs are more than just work-study opportunities. They foster transferable skills that serve students well beyond graduation.
As her college career progressed, she expanded her campus employment to include other roles that further impacted her growth. refereeing intramural volleyball and basketball and creating social media content for The State News. Refereeing intramurals allowed her to stay connected to her passion for sports while teaching her work-life balance. Her position at The State News immersed her in a supportive, creative community, that gave her a new level of professional confidence.
True this is just one student’s experiences, but it highlights that campus jobs are more than just work-study opportunities. They foster independence and responsibility that translate into transferable skills that serve them well beyond graduation.
For higher ed administrators, the takeaway is that student employment is not only about helping students cover expenses. It is an avenue for personal and professional growth, preparing them for life after college in ways that classroom learning alone cannot achieve.
For the student employees in your card office or potential hires, encourage them to read the article from The State News. It could give them a broader perspective on the opportunity in front of them.
OrderAhead is a dining and mobile ordering application developed by TouchNet for use at colleges and universities. The system is designed to enable campus administrators to manage dining hall capacity, regulate order flow, and accept payments from both campus card accounts and traditional payment cards.
Administrators have full control over the platform, including menu configuration, promotional codes, order limits, and location-specific settings. The system supports integration with existing campus systems and offers optional features such as loyalty programs and customizable reporting.
It learns, predicts, and controls traffic and capacity. It can even spot trends and analyze history to take the guesswork out of staffing, inventory, and menu planning.
TouchNet OrderAhead collects and analyzes real-time data on usage patterns, reservations, and transaction history. This information can be used to monitor capacity at specific locations, identify trends, and inform staffing, supply, and menu decisions.
The video provides a thorough demo of both the user experience and the administrator interface. It shows how students navigate the app to place their fine-tuned orders and make payments. Administrator functionality includes visibility into orders, inventory, and menus.
The app can be fully branded to the institution’s color scheme, logos, and identity.
By combining administrative controls, user-facing ordering tools, and detailed reporting, OrderAhead can manage both the operational and customer-facing aspects of campus dining.

In a recent interview with CampusIDNews, Danny Johnson, Regional VP of Sales for Transact, highlights the company’s new IDX platform as well as other innovations.
He describes IDX as the first fully cloud-architected, multi-tenant transaction system in higher education. By operating in the cloud, IDX unlocks new opportunities for campuses to access and use their data in innovative ways.
The Transact Insights product delivers advanced data visualization tools for both the company’s payments and commerce products. Institutions can monitor spending trends, payment preferences, transaction times, and purchasing behaviors in real time, allowing them to fine-tune student services.
Insights integrates seamlessly with Transact’s cloud point-of-sale system, and for institutions with existing analytics tools, a streamlined real-time data feed is available. This flexibility ensures campuses can harness actionable intelligence regardless of their current technology setup.
Mobile credentials remain one of Transact’s most successful offerings, purpose-built for the unique demands of higher education. Beyond access control, mobile credentials integrate with diverse campus systems – from library checkouts to recreation centers –many of which run on legacy platforms. Transact’s SIS payload feature addresses this by transmitting student ID numbers to these systems in formats they understand, eliminating the need for costly system overhauls.
Johnson also introduces Transact Verify, a cloud-based reader that replaces older iValidate and PR5000 devices. This versatile solution supports event attendance, meal plan verification, point-of-sale functions, and more.

TRANSCRIPT
My name is Danny Johnson. I've been with Transact since 2005. This is a very exciting time for us since we recently merged with CBORD. It added all our clients together, so we are now a very, very large company servicing the higher ed industry here in the U.S. and worldwide.
What we're most excited about, especially at this NACCU conference, is our IDX product. It's named for a brand-new ID experience.
It is, as far as we know, the first and only cloud architected and designed transaction system that truly uses all the multi-tenant, cloud microservices.
It's incredibly exciting where we're going.
We're actually consolidating six transaction systems all into one.
So, this one, we're investing heavily.
As far as I know, this is the largest investment in the architecture of a transaction system ever seen in our industry.
I think our clients are ready for a multi-tenant true cloud system.
It enables something that I think will be revolutionary for our industry, and that's access to the data in new and creative ways.
By moving to the cloud, it gives us abilities to do things with the data that we just couldn't do before.
Insights, another product that we've recently released, is a perfect example of that.
We first released Insights into our integrated payments vertical, and our clients are using it already to look at how students are making payments on campus, what types of payment methods they're using, and using that business intelligence to really modify their processes and become more efficient.
We're seeing the same thing in our commerce side as well. We've released Insights for all our commerce products.
Insights gives campuses real time data on where students are spending money, how long it's taking for them to access food, what they're ordering, and more.
Our cloud point of sale is feeding information into Insights where campuses can see in real time exactly where students are spending their money, how long it's taking for them to access food, how they're paying for that, what they're ordering and where.
With that amount of information, campuses can fine tune the student experience and design it exactly the way that they want.
A lot of campuses already have something that they're using to visualize their data. In those cases, we've streamlined Insights into just a real time data feed.
So, if you already have a platform that you're using to model your business intelligence, great. What we'll do is we'll just strip down all the data, feed that into your system, instead of using the full Insights product.
We have different flavors for different types of institutions depending on what their resources are, what they already have in place and how they go about their business.
Mobile credentials continue to be a very, very successful product for us.
We are by far the dominant mobile credential in the higher ed market, and I think there's a couple of reasons for that.
One is it's designed for higher ed.
Although mobile credentials have been around for a long time and access control companies offer in the commercial space, it's very different in higher ed in the way that students use their mobile credential.
The SIS payload capability of our mobile credentials allows us to send the student number to legacy systems in areas like libraries, rec centers, and meal plans.
It's not always just the credential that you need to pass from your phone over to a reader.
Campuses are like mini cities.
They have departments, they have different aging systems, they have platforms on campus like in the library, how students check out books, in the rec center, taking tests.
There are all kinds of platforms that are using the campus ID today. Different systems that are using the campus ID are sometimes legacy or outdated. You just don't have the ability to have a mobile credential number inputted as the student number in those systems.
We understand that because we've been in this business for 40-plus years.
So, we've included a payload in that mobile credential read.
We call it SIS payload, and it basically allows us to send the student number through the mobile credential read to those legacy systems.
This way you don't have to upgrade absolutely everything on campus.
We've created ways and phasing to allow campuses to move in that direction and not have to do everything.
That's one of the differences of partnering with a company in the space for mobile credential as opposed to using an access control mobile credential out there.
With the merger and the partnership with CBORD, it's even more exciting.
CBORD has also been a pioneer in the space, bringing those access control mobile credentials to their campuses.
Now they have access to the Transact mobile credential as well.
We're bringing choices.
We expect to continue working with Allegion and with HID for those mobile credentials on those campuses when they already have that infrastructure in place.
If they don't and they're still planning it, they have access to the Transact mobile credential in the future as well, too.
We always show up strong here at NACCU. It's a very, very important organization and conference for us. We have a big team here.
We always have a large booth, and we try to bring as many of our products to showcase and touch and feel, look at them and really get an experience for them.
We also have our brand-new product called Transact Verify here as well.
It is a purpose-built reader that we can use for event attendance. It will eventually replace the iValidate product that we've had out on the market for a while, as well as a reader called the PR 5000 that many campuses are using for point of sale and for activities, for meal swipes, for meal plans to go into dining halls.
All of that will be replaced with a very, very elegant cloud solution called Transact Verify.
In addition to that, we have our entire commerce platform.
We have our mobile ordering kiosks where the guests here at NACCU can look through, see what it's like for students to order food, how they can update the prices and menu pictures across their entire commerce platform. And not just through mobile ordering and kiosks, but also their point of sale – all by just updating one location as opposed to having multiple systems that they have to go out and update those prices, the pictures, or change the description, change the product names, the foods, and that sort of thing.
Now they can just do it once and it will automatically change across their entire platform.
