The PassKit + codeREADr integration makes it easy to scan and check digital passes using the codeREADr mobile app. Whether you’re checking people into an event, redeeming coupons, verifying memberships, or logging attendance, this integration helps you handle pass scanning in a simple and reliable way, right from your phone or tablet.
Once the integration is set up, your team can scan passes on-site and immediately see if the pass is valid, has already been used, or has expired.
Setting Up The Integration
To use this integration, you’ll need a PassKit account and a codeREADr account. You can set everything up directly in the PassKit platform.
Here’s how to get started:
- Log into PassKit and go to the Passes section.
- Choose the pass type you want to connect (like a membership card, coupon, or event ticket).
- Click the Settings tab, then scroll down to Integrations.
- Select codeREADr from the list and follow the instructions to connect your codeREADr account.
- You’ll be asked for your codeREADr API credentials, which you can get from your codeREADr dashboard.
- Once connected, choose how you want the scanning to work, for example, one-time use, multiple scans, or time-based access.
- You can also customize what message shows on screen when a pass is scanned.
- Save your settings, and you’re ready to start scanning.
Now you can use the codeREADr app to scan and check passes using your device’s camera.
Common Use Cases
This integration is useful in many situations where you need to scan passes and see if they’re valid. Here are some common examples:

- Check that a membership card is still active before allowing access.
- Keep track of who attended a class, seminar, or guided tour.
