In one embodiment, a method includes receiving access data from an application on a mobile device of a particular user. The access data includes authentication data associated with a shared device and a digital credential associated with the mobile device. The shared device is configured for use by at least a number users. The method also includes authenticating the access data based on a comparison of the access data with verification data stored by the verification authority; and transmitting to the shared device a digital certificate signed by the verification authority in response to the authentication. The signed digital certificate provides the particular user access to the shared device.
