PassFast is an API-first, managed Apple + Google Wallet platform at $0.015 per active pass / month, with a remote MCP server (Bearer `sk_live_…`) so agents like Claude or Cursor can create and manage passes alongside the REST API and dashboard. ## Who Pass2U is for Pass2U is a wallet-pass creation tool aimed at businesses that want to build digital loyalty cards, membership cards, coupons, and event tickets for Apple Wallet and Google Wallet without writing code — typically via a dashboard, and API where their public docs describe it (TBD for capabilities not clearly documented on Pass2U's public site). It's a reasonable fit for teams that mainly need a self-serve, no-code way to design and hand out passes. For exact current plans, limits, and feature details, check Pass2U's own site directly — this page only makes public-positioning claims and doesn't restate Pass2U pricing or specs. ## Gaps for API-first teams That no-code focus is also where Pass2U tends to be a weaker fit for engineering-led teams. If your workflow is "generate a pass from application code, an internal tool, or an AI agent" rather than "design a pass by hand in a dashboard," you're generally looking for: - A documented REST API as the primary interface, not just a dashboard export. - One call that issues a pass for both Apple Wallet and Google Wallet, instead of managing two separate pass objects. - Managed certificate signing, so you're not maintaining Apple PassKit certificates or Google Wallet service-account keys yourself. - A way for AI coding agents to call the same pass-management tools your API exposes. ## PassFast as a managed, dual-wallet alternative PassFast is built around that API-first workflow: - **Dual-wallet in one call:** generating a pass for both Apple Wallet and Google Wallet counts as a single active pass — you don't pay for or manage two separate records per customer. - **Usage-based pricing:** $0.015 per active pass per month, metered on active passes rather than flat per-seat tiers. - **100 free generates, once:** new accounts get 100 free pass generates to build and test with before paying. - **Managed signing:** PassFast holds and rotates the Apple and Google signing credentials, so there's no PassKit certificate or service-account setup on your side. - **Remote MCP:** connect Claude or Cursor to PassFast's MCP server with a secret API key (`Authorization: Bearer sk_live_…`) and an agent can create, update, and void passes using the same tools as the REST API. ## Pass2U vs. PassFast | | Pass2U | PassFast | |---|---|---| | Primary interface | Dashboard-first, no-code pass builder | REST API + dashboard, API-first | | Apple + Google in one pass | Check Pass2U's current docs | Yes — one active pass covers both wallets | | Certificate/signing setup | Check Pass2U's current docs | Managed signing, no PassKit infra to run | | AI agent / MCP access | Not documented publicly as of this writing | Remote MCP server, Bearer `sk_live_…` key | | Free tier | See Pass2U's pricing page | 100 free pass generates, one-time | | Pricing model | See Pass2U's pricing page | $0.015 per active pass / month | Where this table says "check Pass2U's current docs" or "see Pass2U's pricing page," that's intentional — this page only carries public positioning for Pass2U's business, not restated pricing or feature claims we can't verify at publish time. ## Try PassFast If your team needs an API-first, managed way to issue Apple and Google Wallet passes — including from an AI agent — PassFast is built for that from the ground up. - [Start free →](https://passfa.st/signup) - [Compare PassFast to PassKit →](https://passfa.st/compare/passkit) - [Read the MCP docs →](https://passfa.st/docs/mcp)
