How the account makes logging in easy
The BC Services Card account allows you to log into government websites with the BC Services Card app, or by using a username and password with a BC Token.
Logging in with your BC Services Card account is more secure than a traditional login because the account is linked to your verified BC Services Card, confirming your identity.
Where you can use it
Your BC Services Card account can be used to access many supported government websites and services.
- Health Gateway shows your B.C. health records in one place, including lab test results, medications, health visits and immunizations
- The Canada Revenue Agency allows you to view and manage your personal income tax and benefit information
- StudentAid BC lets you apply for a student loan or manage your loan

Accessibility and privacy
We're committed to making our services accessible and easy to use. The BC Services Card app and account website support screen readers and other accommodations.
Your privacy is always protected when using the BC Services Card. Verification during setup confirms your identity and helps ensure nobody else can set up an account with your information.
When you use the BC Services Card account to log in to a website you can see the information that is shared for the service you need, like your basic account information or a unique number used to identify you.
