Some tickets and cards never come with an Apple Wallet pass. Passora lets you make one yourself. CREATE A PASS Type in the details, pick your colors, add a logo or image, and set the barcode. You edit directly on a live preview of the pass, so what you see is what you get. All five Apple Wallet pass styles are supported: event ticket, store card, coupon, boarding pass, and generic. ADD IT TO WALLET Passora generates a properly signed pass that works like any other Wallet pass. It shows up on your lock screen and the barcode scans at the door. OR KEEP IT IN THE APP Every pass is saved in your library, so you can also use Passora as a simple place to store tickets and cards without adding them to Wallet. Tap any pass for a full-screen view with a scannable barcode. GROUP PASSES THAT BELONG TOGETHER Put related passes into a group: a trip, an event, or one ticket per person. Open the group and swipe from one barcode to the next, so you can scan a whole party in at the gate without leaving the screen. START FROM A PHOTO OR PDF You can also start a pass from a photo, screenshot, or PDF. Passora reads the text and barcode it finds and fills in what it can. You fine-tune the rest. From a multi-page PDF, Passora finds the pages that hold a pass and creates them together as a group. PRIVACY No accounts, no ads, no analytics. Photos are processed on your device. Pass contents are sent once, encrypted, to be signed, and are never stored. Your pass library stays on your phone. Passora creates personal passes from information you provide. It is not affiliated with any venue, airline, or retailer.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Passora at none against CardKeeper's shown. Passora also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
