How do I have my first Action Card made?
Once you have registered for a Bama Bound Freshman or Transfer orientation session http://orientation.ua.edu/ , you may access the online UA Action Card Photo Submission Application with your myBama user name and password. Details about photo submission. After your photo is submitted, if approved you will receive an approval email to your crimson email with instructions on how to download your mobile card. Once your mobile card is set up in the Apple Wallet/Google Wallet your card is ready. UA is a mobile-first campus, meaning the official ID for UA is the mobile card.
Faculty/Staff can also access the Online Photo Submission Application and download the mobile ACT Card.

The Payroll Action form must have been completed in Banner prior to receiving your Action Card.
