We still use paper and plastic in many unnecessary situations despite the rise of mobile technology.  Loyalty cards, gift cards, boarding passes, concert tickets, and coupons are all still most commonly physical items that are inconvenient and to both customers and businesses alike.  Some time ago, Apple created Passbook to encourage people to replace these physical items with digital version on their iPhones.  However, while use has grown steadily, Passbook has still only seen relatively limited uptake.  Kevin William David is a cool person in technology that wants to change that.  David founded Walletkit in 2012 to help businesses integrate Apple Passbook into their model.  David designs, codes, and delivers professional grade passbook passes to Walletkit’s clients to suit their specific needs.  David clearly believes in a more convenient future based on mobile technology and he’s doing his part to spread it with his company.  If you’ve never tried Apple Passbook, but are interested in using it, you should speak to iPhone support to learn more about it. 

David and his company provide his clients with all forms of Passbook passes.  Walletkit supports the creation (and updating) of constant-use Passbook passes such as store loyalty and rewards cards as well as one-time use passes such as event or travel tickets.  This allows David to help a wide range of companies integrate the use of Passbook passes into their operations.  Currently, David has Walletkit running under a monthly subscription model.  The more Passbook passes that get sent out to customers, the more the subscription costs.  This means the bigger your business, the more money Walletkit will cost.  Those interested in a service like Walletkit, but who don’t want to risk large amounts of money due to operation costs for things like business IT services, may want to try Walletkit on a small section of their customer base first and gauge their reactions.

Before founding Walletkit, David received his degree in computer science from Anna University in India.  He concentrated his studies in the field of assistive technology for the visually impaired. This field that deals heavily with studying how people interact with their devices and David likely puts that experience to work as he and his team design new Passbook passes for other businesses.  For now, Walletkit only supports Passbook, but is working to expand to other mobile wallet solutions in the future as well.
