HID Mobile Access Now Available via PlaceOS WorkMate

You can now use your phone as your staff ID at supported offices — no fob required.

✅ What You’ll Need

• The PlaceOS WorkMate app (iOS or Android)
• A building enabled with HID Mobile Access via PlaceOS
• An email address to receive activation instructions

Example: The PlaceOS Sydney office is configured via Origo and supports mobile access.

Setup Instructions

1. Open the PlaceOS Workmate App

• Install and launch the app on your mobile device.

2. Access Your Profile

• Tap the profile icon in the top-right corner.
• Select Staff ID.
• Tap Request Virtual Card.

3. Check Your Email

• You’ll receive an activation email from HID Origo.
• You have two options:
  • Option A: Enter the invitation code manually in the app.
  • Option B: Open the invitation link directly on your phone.

4. Confirm Card Activation

• Return to the app.
• You should now see your virtual card listed (e.g., “Card Issue #47”).
• A QR code will appear if your access system supports QR scanning.

5. Use Your Phone Like a Fob

• NFC-enabled readers: Tap your phone to gain access.
• QR-supported readers: Present the QR code from your virtual card.

⚠️ Important Notes

• HID Mobile Access only works in buildings that have been configured by PlaceOS.
• If you do not see the “Staff ID” option or the “Request Virtual Card” button, your building is likely not yet supported.
