How to use Google Wallet to make custom digital passes

Must read

Google Wallet is a very useful app for organizing all your passes in a single app. Everything from boarding passes for your next flight, transit passes, to the loyalty card of your favorite coffee joint — all can be easily accessed from one place. When you first set up Wallet, it automatically scans your Gmail and picks up information on passes you might already have in emails. But even if it’s not able to detect a certain pass or you don’t see the ‘Add to Google Wallet’ option for a new online pass, there’s a simple way to manually do it.

We’ll also walk you through how you can add a new custom pass to Google Wallet via an image of a pass that you may have on your phone. Wallet automatically fills in all the pertinent information that would be needed and saves it as a card. The next time you need to scan your subway pass or a membership card at the gym, you can simply fire up the app and tap on the card you need, without worrying about the physical card or jumping through multiple apps. It truly is one of the best Android apps from Google, today.
