In short Polargate builds wallet and membership systems: passes for Apple Wallet and Google Wallet issued from your own backend, so a customer joins with a link or a QR code and installs nothing. The card updates by itself when points or status change, your staff validate it at the door or the till, and the data stays in your database. For example: **11,421** characters of real content an AI crawler gets from a news page.

Polargate issues passes for Apple Wallet and Google Wallet from your own backend, so anyone can join with a link or a QR code without installing an app. It works for a restaurant's regulars, a hotel's repeat guests, a club's members or any programme where someone earns a benefit. ## How it works The customer adds the pass and it stays on the phone. When points, level or validity change, the pass updates by itself and the phone can show a notice. Your staff scan it at the door or the till. The rules for members and benefits live in your database and connect to your till, CRM or booking engine when those systems offer an API. ## What you keep The code, the certificates, the issuer accounts and the member data are yours, in your name and documented. What you get ## What you take away. Everything is written down before we start, and everything stays in accounts your company owns. ### 01 Deliverables - 01 Signed passes for Apple Wallet and Google Wallet, issued from your own backend - 02 Loyalty cards, membership cards, coupons and tickets, each with your brand - 03 Joining by link, QR code or at the till, with no app to install - 04 Passes that update on their own when points, level or validity change, with a notice on the phone - 05 Validation at the door or the till by scanning the pass - 06 Rules for members, levels and benefits in your own database - 07 Connection to your till, CRM, booking engine or website when they offer an API - 08 Handover in your name: code, certificates and issuer accounts, documented ### 02 How it runs - 01 · Week 1 to 2 Discovery Sprint Interviews with the people who will use the thing, an audit of the systems you already run, a data model, an architecture decision and a scope written in plain language. It ends with a fixed price and a delivery plan, and the document is yours whether or not you continue. - 02 · Week 2 to 4 Foundations Design direction, database schema with row level security from the first migration, environments, continuous integration and the first screens in a place you can open. Nothing is built on a platform you cannot leave: the repository, the backend and the hosting are created in your accounts. - 03 · Week 4 to 8 Build to the first shipped iteration Weekly deployments, a short written update with each one and a running list of decisions. The goal of this stage is a version in production with real data where someone can finish an actual task, not a demo. Scope changes are priced before they are built. - 04 · Week 8 onwards Audit, launch and handover Several review passes over correctness, architecture, accessibility, performance and security, with every finding checked by a second reviewer before it counts as real. Then the launch, the handover pack and, if you want it, a move to the CARE retainer for maintenance and evolution. For example: **707** archived news articles now readable by AI crawlers.

We would rather tell you now than halfway through. If you recognise yourself on the left, let's talk. ### It fits if - You need a website, a portal or an app that does not exist yet, or one that has run out of road - You want the code, the data and the hosting in accounts your company owns - You prefer a fixed price before work starts to an open hourly bill - Someone on your side can decide and give the project a few hours a week - You care that Google and AI assistants can read it from day one ### It is not for you if - You are after a cheap template or a site put together over a weekend - You want it to live on a platform you cannot leave later - Nobody on your side can review screens or make decisions - You need people to bill hours without a clear goal For example: **39** tables with row-level security and zero errors in the August 2026 diagnostic.

No price list and no hourly billing during a build. After a short call you get a written quote for your project. Timeline We start with one pass working in both wallets, so you can try it on your own phone early. The date for the full programme depends on the connections with your till or CRM and is set after a Discovery Sprint. Team Our team designs and builds the passes, the backend and the validation. Pedro C., CTO, sets the architecture and reviews the code before it goes live. How the price is set Fixed price, closed after a Discovery Sprint. What moves it is the number of pass types and the systems to connect. Quoted privately.

Do my customers have to install an app? No. The pass is saved in Apple Wallet or Google Wallet, which already come with the phone. The customer opens a link or scans a QR code and taps add. What kinds of business is this for? Any business with a member, a benefit and a place to check it: restaurants, hotels, gyms, clubs, shops, events or staff cards. In a corporate platform we built, staff carry their digital business card as a wallet pass. Can it connect to our till or CRM? Yes, when the system offers an API or a reliable export. We check that in the Discovery Sprint, before the price is closed. How much does it cost? It is a fixed price, closed after a Discovery Sprint. What moves it is how many pass types you need and which systems have to be connected. For example: **11,421** characters of real content an AI crawler gets from a news page.
