In about 100 words, explain what a digital wallet is and how it can be used. Include discussions of software- versus hardware-based digital wallets and server-side versus client-side digital wallets

A digital wallet is an electronic device or software that can store credit card numbers, digital cash, owner identification, and owner contact information and provide that information to an online business at checkout. Digital wallets give consumers the benefit of entering their information just once, instead of having to enter their information at every site with which they want to do business.
Software-based digital wallets fall into two categories, depending on where they are stored. A server-side digital wallet stores a customer’s information on a remote server belonging to a particular merchant or wallet publisher. A client-side digital wallet stores information on the customer’s computer.
Smartphones and tablets, as mobile devices, are candidates to become hardware-based digital wallets that can store a variety of identity credentials (such as a driver’s license, medical insurance card, store loyalty cards, and other identifying documents). The smartphone can transmit portions of this identity information on command using
its Bluetooth or wireless transmission capability to nearby terminals.
