I have a few apps on my phone for which the only purpose is to open and bring up a barcode (ex. Tim Hortons Scan and Pay). I'd love to delete the app and only have an Apple Wallet thing.

So far as I can tell this still requires an pass/wallet signing certificate from the apple developer program to use, so you can't use it to create ad hoc passes, unless you already have a $100 developer subscription.

Look for the SuperCards app. I have that for my pc optimum, metro, Canadian tire cards / barcodes. No more carrying 1000 loyalty cards around.

As of iOS 27 you can do this yourself, or physical barcodes, they just don’t look as nice as what this program can do.

I use an app called pass2 u wallet for this, it's clunky but works well. No affiliation.

Starbucks on Google can be added to Google Wallet. But then I went to use it and they told me to close wallet and open the app. Shrug.

I've had patchy success with adding boarding passes to the wallet too. Support seems half baked.
