Working with Templates

Create, customize, and manage pass templates for your digital wallet passes

Templates are the foundation of your digital passes. They define the visual design, layout, fields, and behavior of passes that you distribute to users. Think of templates as reusable blueprints that you can use to create thousands of individual pass instances.

Once you create a template, you can use it repeatedly to generate passes with different data while maintaining consistent branding and layout across all your passes.
