Does my customer need to download anything to save the coupon?

No. Apple Wallet is built into every iPhone. Your customer taps your link or scans your QR code, taps 'Add to Apple Wallet,' and the coupon is saved. The whole thing takes about three seconds. Android users get the equivalent Google Wallet experience from the same link.

Can I limit a coupon to one use per customer?

Yes. WalletForge supports single-use coupon passes with unique barcodes or QR codes per recipient. When staff scan the code at redemption, it marks as used and cannot be scanned again. This is available on paid plans.

How do I get the coupon to my customers in the first place?

WalletForge gives you a shareable URL and a printable QR code for every coupon you create. Typical channels include: email newsletters, SMS campaigns, your Instagram or Facebook bio, your website homepage, receipts, flyers, and in-store table cards.

Can I change the offer after customers have already saved the coupon?

Yes. Edit the coupon in WalletForge and save — the update pushes automatically to all customers who have the pass saved. You can change the headline, expiry date, discount value, and terms at any time.

What if I want to run coupons for multiple products or locations?

You can create as many coupon passes as your plan allows. Each one has its own URL, QR code, and analytics. You can set location triggers per pass so customers near a specific store see that location's coupon alert.

Is there a way to track how many customers saved vs. redeemed the coupon?

Yes. Your WalletForge dashboard shows installs (customers who saved the coupon), redemptions (scans at point of sale), and deletions. This gives you a real conversion rate for each campaign — something paper or email coupons simply can't provide.

Why Apple Wallet Coupons Outperform Everything Else

Think about how most coupons die. The email sits unread. The flyer goes in the recycling bin. The promo code gets forgotten when checkout actually arrives. You spent time and money creating an offer, but it never made it to the moment it mattered.

Apple Wallet coupons are different. They live in the same place your customer keeps their credit cards — on their phone, front and center. When a customer saves a coupon to Apple Wallet, it appears on their lock screen automatically when the expiry date approaches, or when they're near your store location. That kind of timely, visible reminder is impossible to replicate with a discount code buried in a promotional email.

WalletForge gives you a simple dashboard to create, customize, and distribute those coupons — without any design or coding skills, and without paying agency rates.

What Types of Coupons Can You Create?

WalletForge supports every coupon format a small business typically needs:

Percentage-Off Coupons

"15% off your next purchase." Clean, simple, and hugely effective for driving repeat visits. Set an expiry date and the pass automatically reminds the customer as the deadline approaches.

Fixed-Amount Discounts

"$5 off orders over $30." Works great for restaurants, coffee shops, and retail stores. The fixed-amount format tends to convert better on higher-ticket items.

Buy-One-Get-One Offers

BOGO deals are among the highest-converting promotions in food and retail. With WalletForge, you can add all the offer details, terms, and expiry in a formatted coupon that looks completely professional on the customer's screen.

First-Time Visit Coupons

Add a coupon link to your Google My Business listing, Instagram bio, or website landing page. New customers claim it before they walk in, and you've already locked in repeat intent before the first visit ends.

Seasonal and Flash Sale Coupons

Running a weekend flash sale? Create a coupon in five minutes, share the link on social media, let customers save it instantly, then update or expire it when the sale ends. No reprinting, no chasing down distributed flyers.

How to Create an Apple Wallet Coupon in WalletForge

The process is fast enough that you could build your first coupon during a quiet moment between customers:

Step 1: Log into WalletForge and choose "Coupon" as your pass type.
Step 2: Upload your logo and choose brand colors. The live preview shows exactly how it will look on a customer's iPhone.
Step 3: Write your offer headline — e.g., "15% Off Your Next Order."
Step 4: Set an expiry date, add any terms, and choose whether to include a barcode or QR code for in-store scanning.
Step 5: Hit publish. WalletForge generates a shareable link and QR code instantly.
Step 6: Share via email, SMS, social, or print the QR code for in-store placement.

Customers tap the link, tap "Add to Apple Wallet," and the coupon is on their phone. That's the entire customer journey.

Location-Based Notifications: Show Up at the Right Moment

One of the most powerful features in WalletForge is the ability to configure a location trigger on your coupon. When a customer who has your coupon saved walks within a set radius of your store, their phone shows a notification: "Your 15% off coupon — tap to view."

This isn't expensive geo-fencing technology. It's built directly into how Apple Wallet passes work, and WalletForge gives you a simple field to add your store's location coordinates. You fill it in once, and it works automatically for every customer who saves the pass.

Updating or Expiring Coupons — No Chaos, No Confusion

Promotions change. Offers get extended. Sale periods end unexpectedly. With print or email coupons, updating a live promotion is a nightmare. With WalletForge, it's a single edit.

Log in, change the expiry date or offer text, and save. Every pass that's been distributed syncs automatically. You can also completely expire a coupon — it greys out on the customer's phone without disappearing, so they know it's ended rather than thinking there's a technical error.

Works for iPhone and Android Simultaneously

When you create a coupon in WalletForge, it works for both Apple Wallet (iPhone) and Google Wallet (Android) from the exact same link and QR code. You don't split your audience. You don't build two separate campaigns. Every customer gets the same experience, regardless of what phone they carry.
