May 2025 Product Update: Expanding the boundaries of digital trust

As adoption of digital credentials accelerates across industries and borders, organizations need tools that make digital credentials and digital trust work seamlessly—without complexity or compromise. At MATTR, we're building that foundation. Whether you're issuing credentials, verifying identity, or operating a trust network, our platform updates help you do it faster, safer, and smarter.

‍

We’re focused on building products that make it easier for issuers, holders, and verifiers to embed verifiable credential capabilities—whether enhancing existing workflows or creating entirely new ones. Our aim is simple: deliver exceptional value by removing complexity, reducing fraud, improving outcomes, and streamlining user experiences.

‍

Our latest product updates mark a significant leap forward—not just in features, but in shaping the future of digital trust. As trust becomes the foundation of all digital interactions, these capabilities will play a pivotal role in powering high-assurance, privacy-respecting ecosystems at scale. Here's what we’re introducing:

‍

• mDocs Online presentation & verification: Launching industry-first support for ISO/IEC 18013-7 and OpenID4VP to enable secure online credential use.
• mDocs Revocation: Real-time credential status updates to maintain ecosystem integrity and prevent misuse.
• Role-Based Access Control: Fine-grained access controls for enterprise-scale trust network governance.
• Self Service Portal enhancements: Expanded no-code features to help you configure, launch, and manage your credential workflows with ease.

‍

Let’s explore these new capabilities in-depth.

Powering the next wave of mDocs and mDL adoption

‍

As adoption of mobile documents (mDocs), especially mobile driver's licenses (mDLs), gains momentum globally, it’s no longer enough to just issue credentials—we must also enable people to use them easily, securely, and confidently. To support this growing adoption (as highlighted in our interactive mDL adoption map), we’ve built the capabilities needed to power secure and seamless interactions with these credentials across a wide range of digital use cases.

‍

‍

Online presentation and verification of mDocs and mDLs

‍

‍

We’re proud to be first to market to launch mDocs online verification capabilities compliant with ISO/IEC 18013-7:2024 and OpenID4VP. This isn’t just a technical achievement—it marks a fundamental shift in how digital credentials are used in real-world, online interactions.

‍

Issuing credentials is only part of the picture—people need to be able to use them easily and securely, especially online where most interactions now occur. Today’s users want interactions that are fast, frictionless, and privacy-respecting—without compromising on security or assurance. That’s exactly why we developed capabilities that enable holders to present, and relying parties to verify, mDocs in secure online workflows.

‍

This new capability opens the door to high-assurance, high-value interactions, including:

‍

• Opening a bank account remotely.
• Providing your age while purchasing age-restricted items online.
• Checking into a hotel without showing physical ID.

‍

Because this is built on open, global standards (ISO/IEC 18013-7 and OpenID4VP), relying parties can accept credentials from any compatible wallet application. This provides true flexibility, fosters interoperability, and prevents vendor lock-in—empowering your users to choose the wallet that works best for them, while still achieving a consistent and secure experience.

‍

This capability is now supported by:

‍

• MATTR VII which handles verification logic and tenant-level configuration for managing trusted wallets, verifiers, and issuers.
• The Verifier Web SDK, which makes it easy to embed verification capabilities into web applications.

‍

Flexible with support for both same-device and cross-device flows, these capabilities adapt to a wide variety of digital journeys—allowing you to build user experiences that fit your services, not the other way around.

‍

Want to see what these capabilities look like in action? Start with the GO Hold example app—a live demonstration of how mobile credentials can be presented and verified in real-world scenarios.

‍

From there, developers can use our Holder SDKs in React Native, Kotlin, and Swift to embed the same credential presentation flows directly into their own apps, with full control and flexibility.

‍

And if you’re working with limited development resources or want to get started even faster, you can launch your own white-labeled version using our GO Hold branded solution—a turnkey mobile wallet built on the same platform foundations.

‍

But verifying is only half the picture—credentials must also be kept up to date and trustworthy in real time. That’s where revocation comes in.

‍

mDocs and mDL revocation: Real-time trust, guaranteed

‍

For digital credentials to be truly useful, the information they represent must always be current. If a credential is revoked—whether due to expiration, changes in eligibility, or suspected fraud—it should immediately become unusable across the ecosystem:

‍

• A driver’s license that has been suspended due to a violation should no longer be valid for identification or driving-related services.
• A professional license or certification that has expired or been rescinded must not be accepted for work or compliance purposes.
• A health entitlement card tied to temporary eligibility (e.g., insurance coverage or benefit programs) must reflect its active or inactive status immediately.
• A student ID issued by an institution should be instantly invalidated if the student withdraws or is expelled, to prevent unauthorized access to services or discount.

‍

That’s exactly what our new revocation capabilities enable. Issuers can now revoke or suspend mDocs, ensuring they can no longer be verified once their status changes. This functionality is based on a draft specification and supported across the platform—including MATTR VII verification workflows, the mDocs Holder and Verifier SDKs, and the GO Hold and GO Verify apps.

‍

By integrating revocation directly into the credential lifecycle, we’re augmenting trust in real time—giving verifiers confidence in the validity, currency, and reliability of every credential presented. It’s a critical piece in building ecosystems that are not only secure, but also adaptive, accountable, and trustworthy by design.

Role-specific access at scale

‍

As trust networks grow, so does the need to control how people interact with them—securely and at scale. Service providers are demanding greater control over how different members interact with their platforms. From credential issuance to verification and auditing, not every participant needs the same level of access—or the same set of responsibilities.

‍

That is why we are introducing Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), giving administrators the ability to finely manage permissions across teams, tenants, and organizational roles.

‍

This means you can now onboard participants into your network with role-specific access, such as:

‍

• A partner organization that needs to issue credentials, but not modify platform settings.
• A verifier who should only be able to validate credentials, but not change network trust lists.
• An internal auditor or compliance officer who can view logs and activity, without interacting with sensitive systems and workflows.

‍

RBAC ensures that each user can access only what they need to perform their role—nothing more, nothing less. It’s a critical enabler for operational security, governance, and scalability in high-assurance environments.
