Apple Wallet passes for gift cards

Every issued gift card includes an Apple Wallet pass — the recipient gets an "Add to Apple Wallet" button in the delivery email. The pass carries the brand artwork on front, the redeem code on back, and a live balance via Apple's relevance API.

What gets stored on the pass:
• Front: org logo, denomination, recipient name (if known)
• Back: redeem code (TGC-XXXX), expiration date if any, terms link, redeem URL
• Live balance: pass auto-updates when the balance changes (after a redemption)

How recipients use it:
• Tap the "Add to Apple Wallet" button in the delivery email.
• At a Retail or F&B register with an iPhone — Apple's NFC works for some integrations, but the simple path is opening the pass and showing the QR code on the back to a barcode-scanning POS.
• At your /redeem page — the back of the pass has a deep-link to /redeem/:code that prefills the form.

Re-sending the pass:
From Gift Cards → Issued cards → row menu → "Resend pass". The recipient gets a fresh email with the install button. Useful when the original install lapsed or they got a new phone.

Platform requirement:
Apple Wallet pass issuance requires Turtini's signing certificate to be active (it is, on production). Each org optionally configures their own pass cert — see "Apple Wallet — issuing event tickets as passes" for the platform vs self-signed-cert split. Gift cards default to platform mode.

Android equivalent:
Google Wallet support is on the roadmap. Today, Android recipients get the same email but with a "Save link" instead of "Add to Wallet" — the link opens /redeem/:code which functions as a mobile redeem page.
