The Missouri Department of Revenue has partnered with digital identity provider IDEMIA to launch the Missouri Mobile ID App, which will allow residents to access their digital IDs and mobile driver’s licenses through a free app that can be downloaded from the App Store or Play Store.

Missouri is one of the states attempting a big digital ID push.

The registration process of the app uses multi-factor authentication. The first step is to register the user’s phone number, which binds the digital identity exclusively to the device. After that, the user is required to upload photos of the front and back side of their state-issued physical ID.
