5. Passbook @ Waterfall Mobile
6. Key takeaways

16. Early Bumps
1. Not a finished product: Released for developers. As a result, not a ton of apps, users or understanding in
the marketplace. Also plenty of chances for errors, as product doesn’t appear fully-baked.
2. Multiple stakeholders: Effective passbook usage requires training of retail associates. This takes time
and resources.
3. Technology adoption curve: As of now, 68% of U.S. shoppers prefer credit and debit cards to digital
wallets. Probably due to discomfort with new user experience. Similar to Newsstand, downloading a pass
can require opening an app, opening a web page, opening the app store.
4. Apple’s product rep: Is Passbook the next Ping? Or the next iTunes?
Thursday, March 7, 2013 16
17. The Future
1. A True Mobile Wallet: Passbook replaces the George Costanza wallet, eventually providing a payments
feature. Features already exist, e.g. screen brightness automatically changes and the screen timeout no
longer works, to enhance the user experience.
2. Location-services a reality: Already optimized for marketers’ geo-fencing dream.
3. Easy plug-ins: Beyond QR codes, Aztec, and PDF417, look for Apple to integrate next generation features
like NFC.
4. App Store Model: Roadmap for developer-centric product exists.

To Improve
App-centric: over-relying on apps reduces the
addressable audience size

offers in general
Entry Barriers: Password creation requires email,
web and SMS - think about progressive profiling
Thursday, March 7, 2013 20

new customers return for repeat visits

mobile offers not always the best strategy
