Create Apple Wallet & Google Wallet Cards
To upload your digital wallet cards:
- Go to your Communal Manager Dashboard
- Click Settings on the left-hand side navigation
- Click Membership Cards in the drop-down
- Click + Create new card
You will be presented with a form with a set of fields. The fields are described below:
- Name: Identifies the membership card within the system.
- Active Start Date: Defines the start date for the card’s validity. When a membership is purchased, renewed, or assigned, it uses this date to determine if it falls within the active dates.
- Active End Date: Specifies the end date for the card’s validity.
- Applicable Memberships: Links the card to specific membership types that users purchase or are assigned.
- Card Type: Determines whether the card will be issued as a PDF or for digital wallets (e.g., Apple Wallet, Google Wallet).
- Logo Type (Digital Wallet Only): Allows users to use the default logo or upload a custom logo for the card.
- Title Text (Digital Wallet Only): Customizes the title that appears on the card.
- Card Background Colour (Digital Wallet Only): Customizes the card’s background colour for aesthetic and branding purposes.
- Card Label Colour (Digital Wallet Only): Sets the colour for labels to enhance readability and design.
- Card Text Colour (Digital Wallet Only): Customizes the text colour to ensure it is readable against the chosen background.
After saving your card, it is now live!
When a user purchases a membership they will be delivered an email with an Apple Wallet Pass, a link to download the Google Wallet Pass, and a PDF attachment of their member card. The user can also navigate to the My Memberships area to download the Apple Wallet Pass or the Google Wallet Pass.
