Wildlife Commission launches new system for license purchases

The N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission has launched a new, custom licensing system and mobile app that both residents and non-residents can use to buy licenses, register vessels, apply for permits and shop for merchandise.

Through the app, customers can upgrade their digital license(s) to a durable, hard card license with four design options to choose from that feature North Carolina game and fish. The app also offers a range of resources such as virtual maps, regulations, sunrise/sunset times and harvest report forms.

The Florida-based company Brandt developed the app. Through the partnership, Brandt also created a mobile app that allows wildlife law enforcement officers to scan license documents and hard card QR codes to confirm registration status in the field, with or without cell phone reception.
