AwardWallet has just added several features, and — although I may be slightly biased — this new version is even better than before!

Not only does this provide convenience, but having secure copies of these vital documents can save a lot of time and stress in a scenario where your documents could be missing or even stolen.
Let's see just what all these new features are and how you can use utilize them.
Key Points
- You can now upload your important documents and store them in your AwardWallet account.
- Add documents like your Covid-19 vaccine card.
- Other documents you can add include insurance cards, driver's licenses, and even visas.
- Save pictures of each of these documents to your account for easy access and safe storage.
- Visit this link to quickly add these documents to your AwardWallet account.
Store Your Covid-19 Vaccine Card with AwardWallet
Numerous international travel destinations now require you to show proof of Covid-19 vaccination. Without this, you could be denied boarding. You could be forced to quarantine for several weeks in a government-mandated facility where you are responsible for covering the bill. Ouch.
With AwardWallet's new feature, you can upload your immunization information and photos of your Covid-19 vaccine card to store them safely in one place. Additionally, AwardWallet will produce a QR code, so your documents can be easily accessed when its necessary to show proof.
For the Covid-19 vaccine document, you can input and upload all your info by logging into your AwardWallet account and navigating to the “manually track documents” tab.
Next, follow the prompts to complete the process.
Once done, you can use the shortcut from the launch menu. That way, you can quickly pull up your documents on your phone.
Other Documents
You can do more than just store your Covid-19 vaccine card in the new version of AwardWallet. You also can upload and store other documents you may need for travel. AwardWallet has long offered the ability to store your passport and Known Traveller Number (useful for things like TSA PreCheck and Global Entry) on the AwardWallet app. And now you can add even more.
For example, you can save documents like travel visas. You can also add your driver's license and even your insurance card. Any of these can be needed during a trip — and would be a headache to lose if you don't have a backup!
Keeping Your Information Safe
Finally, we at AwardWallet care a lot about security. In fact, it's of utmost importance to us. Rest assured that all the images you upload to our app are securely stored in an encrypted format on our servers. We want you to know that you can store your travel documents and vaccine card safely in the AwardWallet app or website.
Final Thoughts
Having the ability to easily access your necessary travel documents is not only convenient, it can also act as a form of insurance if / when you do happen to misplace these necessary items.

Great feature. Thanks.
Awesome, very useful!
Being able to add a custom document such as a gym membership card would be great. I have a workaround where I use another part of AwardWallet to store it, but having all my documents under one header in the app would be more convenient.
This is great! I took advantage of this feature.
Wow. I should have researched the app more. I didn’t know that the passport and known traveler could be saved before. I should download this. Thank you for adding these extra abilities! AwardWallet was essential before and now it’s necessary!
The steps listed do NOT work as described. “Add Vaccine Card” simply provides a web form, NOT an opportunity to “store document”. Also, it assumes all vaccine documents are issued by national authorities. In canada, no vaccine card is issued by “Canada”. They are issued by the province.
