There’s been in the code about the new “Apple Account Card” since iOS 15.5 Beta 1, and Apple didn’t reveal it then.

Thanks to Steve Moser for peeping into the code and revealing the awesome feature long before it’s actually released.

And it’s now official — Apple pushes in Apple Account Card into the Wallet app! Silently, without any notification.

The only requirement to use it: update your device to iOS 15.5. If you’ve already updated, it’s already available.

But what’s it, exactly?

This is the upgraded version of the former iTunes Pass. It’s directly connected to your Apple ID funds.

With this card, you’ll be able to use your existing funds for buying products in an Apple store…
