Creating the Pass Type ID

The Pass Type ID identifies the type or class of pass that a provider wants to distribute. For example, if a provider wants to distribute a coupon and a rewards card, the provider would create two Pass Type IDs, one for the coupon and one for the rewards card. To create a Pass Type ID, visit the iOS Dev Center (https://developer.apple.com/devcenter/ios/index.action), and choose Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles in the menu titled iOS Developer Program on the right side of the screen. Click Identifiers and then the Pass Type IDs item in the left menu (see Figure 24.9).
