## Description

BC Wallet is a secure digital wallet app developed by the Government of British Columbia for smartphones and tablets. It enables users to receive, verify, and present digital credentials—electronic versions of physical certifications and permits—from participating services. Unlike mainstream digital wallets, BC Wallet focuses on privacy: it does not track or record analytics and requires user approval for every transaction, sharing only necessary information.

Currently, BC Wallet supports a limited number of digital credentials, mainly as part of pilot projects. Designed with privacy as a key principle, and built on open standards and technologies, BC Wallet provides a trusted and convenient way for residents to manage their official credentials digitally.
