On April 14, CLEAR announced its trusted and transparent identity technology and touchless security lanes are available at Oakland International Airport (OAK). CLEAR members now have the ability to enjoy CLEAR’s frictionless travel experience across the U.S. at 38 airports and with 100+ partners across sports, entertainment, work, and travel.
CLEAR is a secure identity company that uses your eyes to confirm you are you and help you move through experiences fast and effortlessly. With CLEAR’s launch in OAK and ongoing presence at San Francisco International Airport and San Jose International Airport, CLEAR now operates in the three busiest airports in the Bay Area, all of which typically serve millions of passengers a year. On the heels of last month’s launch in Sacramento International Airport, the company’s announcement marks its continued growth and investment in California.
CLEAR is excited to help passengers and people across the country return to their normal lives. As you travel to see your loved ones or take a well-deserved vacation, you should be able to do so as safely and responsibly as possible. CLEAR’s touchless travel experience minimizes unnecessary passenger and airport personnel interaction by eliminating the need for CLEAR members to hand travel documents to agents during the security screening process.
“Our partnership with CLEAR elevates the customer experience while prioritizing the health and safety of airport travelers” said Bryant L. Francis, director of aviation at the Port of Oakland. “We are excited to join the robust network of national airports providing this trusted technology.”
“With CLEAR, all you need is you to open up a world of frictionless experiences,” said CLEAR Chairman and CEO Caryn Seidman-Becker. “We deliver peace of mind to our customers and get them back to doing what they love.”
CLEAR is an opt-in membership service that never sells an individual’s information. The rigorously tested and U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) certified CLEAR identification technology relies upon double-encrypted biometric data. A CLEAR membership is billed annually and costs $15 a month with discounts available for select rewards programs, including Delta Airlines, United Airlines and American Express. Family Plans are also available for an additional $50 per adult per year. Children under 18 do not need to be added to your Family Plan and can join for free. CLEAR offers a free mobile application unlocking benefits such as Health Pass, Curb-to-Gate and mobile passport at no charge to participants.
