What is an Apple Wallet loyalty card?

An Apple Wallet loyalty card is a digital pass customers can keep in the Wallet app on a compatible iPhone. It can represent a stamp program, points balance or membership, giving customers a convenient way to access their card when they visit your business.

Unlike a conventional loyalty app, a Wallet card does not require your business to build a dedicated customer app. The card lives in the customer's existing Wallet, while a platform such as ohloyal provides the tools to create, distribute and manage the program.

Quick answer: To make an Apple Wallet loyalty card, sign up with a Wallet loyalty platform, customize your card, set your rewards and share its enrollment link or QR code. ohloyal supports this workflow for stamps, points and memberships.
