Systems and methods for managing digital identities associated with mobile devices

Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for use in enabling, providing, and managing digital identities in association with mobile communication devices. One exemplary method includes capturing an image of a physical document comprising a biometric of a user associated with the physical document, and extracting the biometric from the image and converting it to a biometric template. The method also includes capturing a biometric of the user and comparing it to the biometric template. The method then includes, when the captured biometric matches the biometric template, transmitting a message to an identification provider comprising at least the image of the physical document and the biometric template, whereby the biometric template is verified against a repository, and binding data representative of the mobile communication device, a mobile application included therein, and the biometric template and/or the captured biometric of the user into a token.
