What is Marshall Mobile ID
Marshall University Campus ID Office is now bringing you Marshall Mobile ID (MMID). MMID allows users to load their Marshall ID card onto their mobile device to replace your standard MUID card with your smart phone or Apple Watch. This will allow all students, faculty, and staff to perform all necessary functions they use every day with their MUID card but with their mobile devices instead. Read below for more instructions on how to become enrolled in Marshall Mobile ID.
Key Features
Members of the Marshall University community can now leave their physical wallets behind and get around campus with just their mobile devices.

It works anywhere on campus where your MUID card is accepted, such as, access to enter residence halls, the Study Center and the Rec Center, campus events, the Marshall Artist Series, and sporting events, make purchases at the Marshall Bookstore, vending machines, and dining services.
