Brivo Mobile Pass is a smartphone access app that provides a digital credential for entering secured areas through the Brivo Access platform. It is intended for active Brivo Access accounts and lets users use their phone instead of carrying a physical key or access card.
Using a mobile credential
The access process begins with a Brivo Access administrator sending a Brivo Mobile Pass to the user by email. The user can then add the credential to the mobile application. Once it has been added, the smartphone can be used to unlock doors associated with the provided access.
Relationship with Brivo Access
Brivo Mobile Pass functions as an additional digital credential format within the Brivo Access cloud-based access control platform. Its role is focused on mobile entry for users whose access is managed through that platform, rather than on general-purpose phone unlocking.
Hardware and physical credentials
The supplied information states that no additional hardware is required to begin using the mobile pass. The app is presented as an alternative to physical keys and access cards, while the administrator-controlled delivery process determines which users receive a credential. This setup can also reduce reliance on physical credentials that may be lost or stolen, according to the product description.
