The channel you have been missing
Mobile Wallet:
the underused channel
Mobile Wallet enables instant interactions under conditions no other channel can match.
Strengthen your brand presence directly inside Apple Wallet or Google Wallet.
The customer experience
Zero friction.
From first contact to repeat purchase.
The customer scans a QR code, their pass is installed. Done!
No form, no password, no app store. From there, the benefits stack up:
- Points balance updated after every purchase, automatically
- Personalized offers and updated visuals pushed directly into the pass
- Geo-triggered notification when the customer walks past your store
- Works offline: the pass displays even without a network
- Almost never uninstalled, unlike loyalty apps
Typical customer journey
The business impact
A direct channel.
No middleman, no algorithm.
Once the pass is installed, your messages land directly on the lock screen. No spam filter, no relevance algorithm, no competition in a cluttered inbox.
Vs. $0.05 to $0.08 per SMS.
Update it in your back office, and the pass updates in the customer's pocket.
Purchase behavior, geolocation, loyalty status...
No app to maintain, no dedicated team, no consultant dependency.
Channel comparison
Apple Wallet & Google Wallet
vs
email, SMS and mobile app
open rate. Half end up in the Gmail Promotions tab, never seen.
SMS
per send. Good deliverability, but low tolerance. Too many SMS leads to opt-outs.
Custom app
real adoption. High cost. 50% of users stop opening the app 30 days after install.
Mobile Wallet
On 98% of smartphones. No app to download, no friction. Adoption rate consistently higher than any custom app.
The classic objection
"Do my customers need to download an app?"
No. Apple Wallet is on every iPhone since 2012. Google Wallet covers virtually all Android devices.
The customer follows a unique URL, and that is it!
These apps come pre-installed. Your customers already use them for their bank cards and boarding passes. All you need to do is add your presence there.
Apple Wallet and Google Wallet are already on your customers' phones. Use that to your advantage!
