The app LA Wallet is being put to use in another convenient way. Bryan McClinton with the Department of Wildlife and Fisheries says that beginning today hunting and fishing licenses will also be displayed on the app.
“We know that a lot of people have been having a lot of grief about the paper, the 8 1/2 by 11, the hunting and fishing licenses instead of the waterproof paper,” said McClinton.
LA Wallet is also used to show driver’s licenses and Covid-19 vaccination confirmations.
McClinton says you don’t have to do anything to make sure your hunting or fishing licenses are actually incorporated with the LA Wallet app.
“If they have the app and their phone is connected to it they’ll see a wallet issues logo and it’ll say connect, link your account, you click that button and it’ll pull it up,” said McClinton.
While you may choose to carry your physical hunting and fishing licenses with you, McClinton says it won’t be necessary from now on as long as you have a registered LA Wallet app on your smartphone.
“The LA Wallet works seamlessly with our system now, so if they literally purchase their license at a Walmart, or an Academy, or online, or here at the headquarters, when they walk out they can link the LA Wallet and it should show up,” said McClinton.
