What is the CheckD Data Wallet?

CheckD Data Wallet is a sophisticated digital tool designed for the management and sharing of information.

It enables everyone to own, use and share their data. Just as a payment wallet lets you push money out of and receive data into bank accounts, CheckD Data Wallet lets you “push” data out of and receive data into data accounts.

Full legal ownership empowers users to take control of their data: With the CheckD Data Wallet, users have full legal ownership of their data. But ownership is just the beginning—it’s equally important to know where and how the data can be used and reused to unlock its full potential and enjoy meaningful benefits.

Badges empower users to leverage their data: The CheckD Data Wallet allows users to apply their data to authenticate “badges” issued by others. Badge issuers can define the rules and prescribe the data for the badges. Once authenticated, badges allow badge holders to receive offers from badge issuers and others.

Badges to share data: Each badge comes with a unique QR code that enables third-party validation for seamless use. Badge holders can also conveniently share data prescribed by the badge to ”push” data to another Data Wallet user.

CheckD connections allow more data into the CheckD ecosystems. Using CheckD connections, users can acquire more data from their accounts associated with banks, schools, governments and other institutions. With more connections, more types of badges can be issued, authenticated, and used, unlocking greater benefits for everyone.

Issue Badges from inside the Data Wallet: Users can create a badge for their own groups for purposes of giving an ID card, record an achievement or to present the badge as proof of an activity.

Authenticate a badge: Use the Data Wallet to confirm that a badge is true about another person.

Validate a badge and receive data: Using the Data Wallet to check a badge for validity and receive data from other Data Wallet Users.
