PassKit Golang Smartpass Creator

Golang package for creating PassKit smartpass links.

Generation of PassKit SmartPass links is completely free - you can generate as many links as you need.

A PassKit pass record is only created once someone visits the link for the first time.

This is THE fastest, most economical, and secure way to generate and distribute your pass links at scale without the need for Developer Resources or the need to implement the PassKit API.
