‍The Lucida is a luxury building on New York City’s Upper East Side that offers both apartment and corporate office spaces for its tenants and has become one of the first to offer both employee badge in Apple Wallet for its corporate tenants, as well as resident keys in Wallet for residents. The facility introduced an employee badge in Apple Wallet solution exclusively for their office staff and employees, and afterwards, they expanded this offering to also include resident keys in Apple Wallet for their tenants to access the building and its amenities.

So, how has this been received by residents? The Lucida’s residents are now able to simply hold their iPhone or Apple Watch near a reader in order to securely gain access — eliminating the need to open an app or present a traditional, plastic access key.

Building managers are also able to easily issue or revoke key access to residents faster and in a more secure manner than ever before — all from the convenience of their desk. It’s a win-win.

The Lucida’s further expansion to bring keys in Apple Wallet to its tenants is not only an exciting new advancement, but underscores how this is an innovation that can provide an exceptional user experience while also maintaining high security across use cases.

“The Lucida is thrilled to be able to provide our residents a new solution, resident keys in Apple Wallet. We had already seen the ease, security and convenience that employee badge in Apple Wallet brought for our corporate tenants, and believe this solution will benefit our residents just the same.” - Donal Bergin, Managing Agent at The Lucida

As a result of our interoperable platform, Wavelynx brought in technology partner, SoloInsight, to serve as the resident experience app, making this solution truly come to life for the residents at The Lucida.

"Our partnership with Wavelynx signifies a leap towards the future of residential living. Delivering resident keys in Apple Wallet provides a cutting-edge solution that ensures convenience and security for residents, and eases the management tasks for building operators." - Farhan Masood, President at Soloinsight
