Scan any barcode. It's in your Apple Wallet in seconds. Tired of digging through your bag for the right plastic card? CraftPassAI turns any physical card — loyalty cards, gym passes, library cards, event tickets, luggage tags, parking passes, and more — into a native Apple Wallet pass.

The AI photo-scan reads the card for you and fills the form in 2–3 seconds. — Works with anything. If it has a barcode, CraftPassAI can digitize it. — No account needed. Launch the app, scan a card, done. No email, no password, no profile. — Built for iOS 18. Designed from the ground up for the latest iPhone and iPad. **PRIVACY-FIRST** CraftPassAI was built with privacy as a requirement, not an afterthought. There are no user accounts and no signup — a random anonymous device ID is generated on first launch and never linked to you. When you use the AI photo-scan feature, your photo is relayed to our vision API and discarded immediately — it is never written to disk and never stored in any database. There are no ads, no third-party analytics SDKs, and no tracking of any kind. Full privacy policy: https://craftpassai.com/privacy **PRICING** Download CraftPassAI for $0.99. Regular barcode scanning is free and there is no limit on how many passes you create. The AI photo-scan feature uses scan credits.
