Why Passbook could join Ping in the Apple graveyard

• kmfrk 14y ago
  It just sounds like a new kind of app store that has yet to gain "traction". I am really miffed that people in this part of Europe haven't bothered at all to make any apps.

    Sounds like an opportunity for you to capture the market.

      I don't know if PassBook apps can even be paid, but I am working on something that's basically a PassBook app - just better. :)

  I didn't realize it was meant to be used for payments. I admittedly have used it for flight boarding passes, coupons and show tickets so far - I thought it was great for that (particular boarding passes as it updates the gate if it changes). Perhaps it is their long term strategy to use it for payments, however it doesn't seem that way given their current branding? If it is targeted for that, I completely missed it!

  "Full disclosure: I work at edo, a card-linked offers provider" Right, so, thanks for the not-at-all-biased critical analysis.
