Getting Started with Addtowallet.io
Welcome to Addtowallet.io! We’re thrilled to help you engage your customers with digital wallet passes. Here’s a friendly guide to get you started.
What are Passes?
Digital wallet passes, also known as mobile wallet passes, are digital versions of items like loyalty cards, coupons, tickets, and membership cards. They replace traditional physical cards and paper tickets, providing convenience for both businesses and consumers. These passes can be stored in mobile wallet apps such as Apple Wallet or Google Pay and typically contain essential information like a barcode or QR code, cardholder’s name, and more.
How Do Users Add Passes?
Users can add digital wallet passes to their mobile wallets by scanning a QR code, clicking a web link, or receiving them from a merchant. Once added, they are easily accessible on the user’s mobile device.
What are Templates?
Templates are the foundation for creating your digital wallet passes. At Addtowallet.io, our template tool allows you to design the look and layout of your passes. You can create five types of templates: coupons, rewards cards, event tickets, boarding passes, and generic cards.
What are Campaigns?
Creating a campaign involves importing customer data and generating passes from your templates. Pass links are created for each customer, which you can then export to your chosen service to distribute the links, such as through a mailing list service. Our campaign dashboard helps you track customers who claim your passes.
