This walkthrough takes you from a fresh account to a pass in a real wallet. Everything here happens in the admin console at app.passlet.io; if you’d rather automate, see the API reference afterwards.
1

Create your account and workspace

Go to app.passlet.io and enter your email — Passlet detects whether you’re signing in or signing up. New accounts go through a short onboarding:
  1. Set up your account — your name and a workspace name (typically your company or team name).
  2. Secure your account — pick how you’ll sign in next time. Passkeys are recommended; you can also set a password. You can change this later under Settings → Sign-in & security.
A workspace is the top-level container for everything: templates, passes, team members, billing, and API access.
If your company already uses Passlet with Enterprise SSO, you may see a “Continue with SSO” option for your email domain — use that instead of creating a separate workspace.

Create a template

From Overview, choose Create a template (or go to Templates → Start blank). You can also Browse Gallery for starting points curated by Passlet.In the create dialog, name the template and choose which wallets it supports — Apple Wallet, Google Wallet, or both. Then design it in the editor:
  • Lay out fields, colors, images, and the barcode for each wallet.
  • Add variables — named placeholders (text, number, date, choice) that get filled in per pass at issue time, e.g. attendeeName or seat.
  • Optionally set a redemption rule — when the pass is valid and how often it can be scanned. See Redemption & scanning.
When you’re happy, click Publish. Only templates with a published version can issue passes.

Issue your first pass

Go to Passes → Issue passes (or press Issue Pass right from the template editor).
  1. Pick your template.
  2. Fill in a row per pass: a Label (the holder’s display name), an External Pass ID (your own reference — or let Passlet auto-generate it), and a value for each template variable.
  3. For bulk issuance, use Import from CSV.
  4. Click Issue pass.
The pass moves through Queued → Pending → Issued within moments. Issuing happens asynchronously, so large batches don’t block.

Add it to a wallet

Open the pass from the Passes list. The detail page shows add-to-wallet links for Apple Wallet and Google Wallet — copy one and open it on a phone to add the pass.In production you’d deliver these links by email, SMS, or your own app. See Distributing passes.
5

Scan it (optional)

To validate passes at the door, open Scanner app in the sidebar and scan the setup QR with the Passlet Scanner mobile app to connect a device. Scans show up live in the pass’s scan history. See Redemption & scanning.
6

Automate with the API (optional)

Create an access token under Access tokens and you can do everything above — and more — over REST: issue passes in batches, update pass data, record scans, and receive webhooks when passes change.
curl -X POST https://api.passlet.io/v1/passes \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $PASSLET_API_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "templateVersionId": "…",
    "externalPassId": "order-1042",
    "label": "Ada Lovelace",
    "variables": { "attendeeName": "Ada Lovelace" }
  }'
