What are Account Restricted Passes?
A new feature that lets developers associate some pass objects with Google accounts which limits
who can save the pass.
How does it work?
You set the user's email address on the pass object using the Google Wallet API. When the user
attempts to save that pass to Google Wallet, we validate that the account set on the pass object
matches the Google Account of the Google Wallet user saving the pass.
That sounds great! How do I get access to this feature?
We’re testing the feature with a small number of developers. If you are interested,
contact support
in the Google Pay & Wallet Console and
file a support case under Topic: “Google Wallet API Integration”, Subtopic: “Other”
and include in the issue description: “Account Restricted Passes Access Request”.
We’ll let you know when you can access it.
