It also upgrades the holder to Pearl status, one level higher than the Sapphire entry level of the five-tier program.

You saw the part of the article where it said letting the machines read your license (never thought to see what it would do with my wife's non-driver's ID) doesn't work anymore. That doesn't say the new credit card doesn't work.
