Installing Digital Pass Certificates
You must have a valid Pass Certificate issued by Apple in order to generate and download passes. To obtain a pass
certificate, you first need an Apple developer account. Developer accounts are free; to register for an account, go to
developer.apple.com and click the register link at the bottom of the page.
To obtain the Apple Passbook certificate that will be used to sign digital passes:
1. Log in to the Apple Developer portal at developer.apple.com.
2. Register a Pass Type ID for your pass.
3. Create a certificate for your Pass Type ID.
4. Follow the portal’s instructions to create a certificate signing request using Keychain Access (a standard Mac OS X
application) and submit it to the portal.
5. Download the Pass Type ID certificate.
You also need to provide the private key for the pass certificate. If you created the certificate signing request using
Keychain Access:
1. In Keychain Access, locate the private key for the certificate signing request.
2. Export this private key to a Personal Information Exchange (.p12) file.
To install the certificate, go to Configuration > Digital Passes > Start Here and click the Install Pass Certificate
link, or go to Configuration > Digital Passes > Pass Certificate and click the Upload pass certificate link. Step 1 of
the Install Pass Certificate form opens.
