mobile pass

Phone-based entry permit

A mobile pass is a digital ticket, boarding pass, loyalty card, or credential stored on a smartphone rather than printed on paper or plastic.

Mobile passes typically appear in wallet apps and can be scanned from the phone's screen: I added my concert tickets as mobile passes so I wouldn't lose them.

Airlines, transit systems, and event venues increasingly prefer mobile passes for convenience and reduced costs.
