Google Wallet supports this as well, but not for passports, only select state drivers licenses.

I wonder if passports will come to Google soon as well - that'd open it up nationwide as long as you have a passport.

Apple also supports select state drivers license.

I would definitely expect Google to follow quickly.

Google Wallet has supported passports for about a year now [1]. Works great at TSA. You scan it yourself. You never need to hand them your unlocked phone.
