As apple announces their iOS 6 OS they have launch new option called "Pass Type IDs". Same day it has been listed in my apple developer account pane. I am trying to know what it is but cant get more on it.
The only information shared by apple is :
Passes are a digital representation of information that let users take an action in the physical world, in the same way as boarding passes, membership cards, and coupons. Pass Type IDs define a class or category of passes you wish to offer.
You must register your Pass Type identifiers in order to generate Pass Certificates which are used to digitally sign and send updates to your passes.
I have updated our iPhone to ios6 beta and one more app is new there called "Passbook" where you can save your passes and coupons, etc.
I found some good article where you come to know about passbook programming :

Following is the repository where you can found a PHP code to create passes on the fly.

As per Techcrunch report it does following :
ReplyDelete- Get all your passes in one place, including boarding passes, tickets, and coupons.
-It works with other apps that make natural sense, like the Starbucks store app or various apps to buy movie tickets with.
-Brands include Starbucks, Fandango, United, Amtrak, and Apple Store of course.
-Shows gate changes, account balances, etc. as pop-ups on lock screen.
