Description
The card handlers carry every day.
The Animal ID Card is the single most-purchased item from USAR — the one handlers most commonly produce when an airline gate agent, hotel front desk, or restaurant manager asks for documentation. Wallet-sized, photo-personalized, with a scannable QR code that instantly verifies the registration on USAR’s public verification page. Available as an instant digital ID, a mailed PVC card, or both.
What’s on the card
- High-resolution photo of your animal
- Animal’s name, breed, and registered type (Service Dog · ESA · PSD)
- Registration number prominently displayed
- Scannable QR code linking to USAR public verification
- Barcode for venues with scanners
- Holographic security strip (printed version)
- USAR seal and registered-since year
Three formats
- Digital Only · $24.99 — instant email — Branded digital ID delivered to your inbox within minutes. Display on your phone, save to Apple Wallet or Google Wallet (with active monthly pass), or print at home.
- Printed Only · $59.99 — mailed in 3 days — Wallet-sized PVC card with photo, holographic security strip, and barcode. The card most handlers carry daily.
- Both · $74.99 — most popular — Get the instant digital today and the printed card mailed for daily carry. Best of both worlds.
What handlers report
The Animal ID is the single most-presented document from the USAR product line. Hotels, restaurants, rideshare drivers, and airline gate agents respond more reliably to a presented physical card than to a phone screen — especially in dim lighting, on slow Wi-Fi, or when a phone battery is dead. Combined with the QR code, the printed card provides both a visual and digital path to verification in a single hand-off.
Wallet pass support
Active Basic ($2.99/mo) or Pro ($4.99/mo) Wallet Pass subscribers can save the ID directly to Apple Wallet or Google Wallet for a native experience — auto-updating photo, registration number, and verification status. Without an active monthly pass, the digital ID is delivered as a high-resolution PNG/PDF for manual phone or wallet storage.
What it isn’t
The Animal ID Card is a registration ID — proof your animal is registered with USAR. It is not a medical certification, an ADA license (no such thing exists — the ADA does not require any registration or certification for service dogs), or a substitute for legitimate task-training. The card supplements your animal’s working status; it doesn’t create it.
