Distribution

Alongside the online application process, many cards are sold to applicants in collaboration with supermarkets, bars, newsagents, gambling shops, and local authorities through which application forms are distributed. Cards can be used to prove age when visiting age-restricted premises and when buying age-restricted goods such as alcohol and tobacco; and can be used in some parts of the UK on buses and on domestic flights. In May 2018 CitizenCard partnered with tech start-up Yoti to offer a combined physical ID card and digital ID via Yoti's mobile app.
