What it costs

Passcreator charges for passes that have been saved to a phone - you can create as many as you like. Its price slider works out to about $90 a month for 1,000 saved passes and $160 a month for 2,000 (excluding VAT), plus Apple’s $99 a year for your developer account.

On WalletPassBuilder, 1,000 passes are covered by the credits in the $49-a-month or $490-a-year plan, and 2,000 means one more pack of 1,000 credits for $100. Credits are used once per pass, not every month.

For under five passes, Passcreator’s free plan is the cheaper option.

Passcreator’s prices are as published on its website in November 2026; check its current plans before you decide.
