Staples to Rollout IdentoGO Enrollment Centers

Staples to be one of the first national retailers to host TSA PreCheck® enrollment

BILLERICA and FRAMINGHAM, MA (April 19, 2018) – IDEMIA, the global leader in Augmented Identity, and Staples, a leading American multinational office supply retailing company, have teamed up to bring IDEMIA’s IdentoGO enrollment centers to Staples stores nationwide. IdentoGO, which offers TSA PreCheck® enrollment, will open 50 centers in Staples stores this summer with plans to scale further.

IDEMIA’s IdentoGO centers offer enrollment for TSA PreCheck®, a program that allows travelers to enjoy a fast and efficient screening experience at U.S. airports. Once approved for TSA PreCheck®, travelers do not need to remove their shoes, liquids, laptops, belts and jackets as they go through security. There are more than 450 TSA PreCheck® lanes at over 200 U.S. airports. The cost of enrollment in the program is $85 and is good for five years, that breaks down to just $17 per year. IdentoGO Centers will also offer Staples’ customers passport photos and certified birth certificates.

As one of the first national partners for IdentoGO, the agreement allows Staples to expand on its ability to serve professional and personal needs, adding value to existing Staples customers and the community at large.

Staples constantly looks for new ways to help businesses succeed, including making it easy for them to travel. This unique relationship with IdentoGO will let us offer our customers additional products and services that are impactful to their lives.
Peter Scala, Chief Merchandising Officer, Staples, Inc.

The convenience and inherent security that the TSA PreCheck® program offers has never been more important than it is today” said “Including IdentoGO centers in Staples stores dramatically expands our reach to bring TSA PreCheck® to more of the traveling public. We are delighted Staples is one of the first national retailers to include IdentoGO’s TSA PreCheck® Application Program in their stores. Staples’ focus on quality products and services and commitment to customer service is why we were attracted to this collaboration.
Charles Carroll, Senior Vice President, IDEMIA Identity & Security, N.A.

Staples stores in the Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Los Angeles, New York and Seattle metro areas will be among the first to provide the service.
