Pass Now turns your business card into an Apple Wallet pass — so the person you just met can save your details with one tap, and you never run out of cards again. MADE FOR WALLET Your card lives in Wallet alongside boarding passes and tickets. Add your name, title, company, contact details and an optional logo, and Pass Now builds a real .pkpass you can add with one tap. SHARE WITHOUT AN APP Every card carries a QR code that saves your contact details straight to the other person's phone — they don't need Pass Now installed. You can also hold your iPhone near another iPhone to share instantly. BUILT FOR THE ROOM YOU'RE IN Add the conference or event you're heading to, and your card is one tap away when you arrive. Keep several cards for different roles or companies, and mark one as your primary — it's the one your widget shows on the Home Screen. YOUR CARDS, ON EVERY DEVICE Cards sync through your own iCloud account, so the card you build on your iPhone is on your iPad too. Choose your QR code density, pick a store-card or generic Wallet layout, and delete any card you no longer need.
