PilotPass gives you a designer, distribution links, scan analytics, and a REST API for loyalty cards, coupons, event tickets, and memberships — no Apple cert wrangling on day one.
20-minute walkthrough · Tailored to your use case
From design to distribution to live updates — all in one workspace.
Live Apple Wallet preview. Colors, logo, fields, barcode — drag-free.
Hosted landing page + QR code + email/SMS send for every pass.
Installs, removals, scans, and active passes — segmented by device.
Bump a value or expire a coupon. Updated passes push to the wallet.
Create passes from your stack. Hook into install / scan events.
Workspaces, roles, and granular keys for every team or client.
"We launched a loyalty program in a single afternoon. Installs went live the same day and our team didn't touch a certificate."
"The live updates are the killer feature. We bumped point balances after every transaction and saw repeat visits jump 38%."
"Distribution links + scan analytics replaced three tools for us. The REST API hooked straight into our checkout in an afternoon."
"Event tickets that just work in Apple Wallet. No app downloads, no support tickets — guests scan and walk in."

Keep integrations behind a stable backend contract.
Loyalty cards, coupons, event tickets, memberships — designed, distributed, and updated from a single dashboard.

Security and trust
Pilot keeps provider activation, credentials, wallet signing, and automation behind server-side boundaries. The frontend presents status and workflow controls without exposing secrets.
Provider credentials, wallet signing, and automation belong behind server controls.
Workspace views are designed for authenticated operators and scoped teams.
Status surfaces can show readiness without triggering provider actions.
Clear disabled states make unfinished activation work visible before launch.
A typed REST API, signed webhooks for install / scan / update events, and SDKs that work in any runtime — Node, edge, server-rendered, you name it.
