GOOGLE WALLET PASSES

Reach every Android customer in Google Wallet

Google Wallet is where Android customers keep the cards they tap to pay with. A Google Wallet pass puts your loyalty card, gift card or ticket in the same place — saved in one tap, updated whenever you change it, and matched by the same pass in Apple Wallet for iPhone.

THE BASICS

What is a Google Wallet pass?

A Google Wallet pass is a digital card saved to Google Wallet, the wallet app on Android phones. Businesses issue them as loyalty cards, stamp cards, memberships, coupons, gift cards and event tickets.

Customers save a pass from a link or a QR code in one tap — from your website, a text, an email or the counter. They do not download your app or sign up for another account.

A saved pass is live. When a points balance, an offer or an expiry date changes, the card in Google Wallet changes with it, and you can message the customer through the pass itself.

WHY A WALLET PASS

What a pass can do in Google Wallet

Saved in one tap

A link or a QR code is all it takes. The customer taps once and the pass is in Google Wallet, next to the cards they tap to pay with.

Changes after it is saved

Update points, balances, offers, fields or the design, and every issued pass follows in real time. There is nothing to resend.

Messages without an app

Reach customers on the lock screen: scheduled, targeted, or triggered near one of your stores, with quiet hours and cooldowns built in.

iPhone covered too

Design once. Android customers get Google Wallet, iPhone customers get Apple Wallet, and PointVibe picks the right one for each phone.

HOW TO MAKE ONE

Create a Google Wallet pass in four steps

1

Pick a template

Start from a loyalty card, stamp card, membership, coupon, gift card or event ticket, then drop in your colours and logo.

2

Choose fields and a barcode

Decide what the pass shows — points, a balance, a tier, an expiry — and watch a live Google Wallet preview update as you build.

3

Publish and share it

Send one link, or put a QR code at the counter. Customers on Android tap once and the pass is in Google Wallet. Email, SMS and your socials work too.

4

Scan it at the counter

Staff scan the pass with the PointVibe Scanner app on any iOS or Android phone. Points and balances update on the customer's pass straight away.
