Transact Campus has launched its innovative Mobile Credential technology at the University of Sydney, marking the institution as the first in New South Wales to implement this system. This mobile-centric platform utilizes NFC-enabled contactless digital IDs, which can be loaded onto personal smart devices, enhancing campus access and security.
The University of Sydney, ranked 18th globally in the 2025 QS World University Rankings, is pioneering the use of this technology. The new system aims to streamline student experiences by facilitating secure and efficient campus-wide transactions and services, thus reducing physical contact points and improving overall campus interactions.

The University of Sydney’s adoption of Mobile Credential is a pivotal step towards modernizing campus experiences. This move aligns with student expectations and propels the university into a future where digital solutions enhance every aspect of campus life."
Sandie Matthews, Chief Information Officer at the University of Sydney, highlighted the benefits of the new system: “This secure technology innovation for digital IDs helps deliver on our key university strategies to create a better workplace and improve operational efficiency. This implementation supports our commitment to promoting a secure, connected community.”
