The incoming class of first-year students will receive a Mobile GATORONE instead of a physical card during Preview. Faculty and staff will be eligible for a Mobile GATORONE as door access readers are upgraded throughout campus this summer. By the start of the fall semester, all students, faculty and staff will be eligible.

Issuing a secure mobile ID is the quickest, most efficient way to provide identification and access for our campus community – no need to carry a card nor worry about losing a card and paying a replacement fee.

This will also allow for faster transactions by placing a mobile device near a campus reader, enhancing the user experience for students, faculty and staff.

Yes, as we phase the mobile credential rollout on campus, existing cards will continue to work in conjunction with the Mobile GATORONE.

Note: The Mobile GATORONE is a privilege and benefit. Anyone found to be misusing their physical card or Mobile GATORONE will be subject to the applicable Code of Conduct or HR policies regarding fraud and/or misconduct.

The Mobile GATORONE can be used at all dining locations, bookstores and beverage vending machines. In addition, we are upgrading door readers this summer for building access. Once a building has been upgraded, you can use Mobile GATORONE for access. By the start of the fall semester, Mobile GATORONE could be used for any action that would have previously required a physical ID card.

If you have special use cases for a physical GATORONE ID, reach out to Business Services at info@bsd.ufl.edu for options and support. We are working to ensure a smooth experience for departments as well as students. There are various technology solutions to fit each need.
