Verify notifications sent to a specific pass

Every pass has a Notifications tab in its detail view. Access it from Wallet → Passes → [select a pass].

The tab shows a full timeline of notifications sent to that pass, including:

• Timestamp of each notification.
• Delivery status badge, such as Notification sent.
• Target device: Apple or Google.
• Message content sent.
• Localized variants, such as FR-FR.

Use this tab to confirm that a specific pass received a notification. It also helps investigate reports of missing notifications.

Synchronization may take up to 5 minutes after a notification is sent before it appears in the History tab.
