What PassKit the wallet platform is

PassKit (passkit.com) is a mobile wallet pass platform often used as infrastructure — APIs, webhooks, and scalable pass issuance for retail, travel, and events. Pricing is typically usage-based; check their site for current plans.

Note: Apple PassKit also refers to Apple's developer framework for wallet passes on iPhone. This page compares MemberPass to PassKit the vendor platform.
