The iTunes Pass service by Apple essentially helps customers who use iTunes gift cards to purchase things on the iTunes Store, App Store and iBooks Store. In order to use new iTunes Pass, customers can add it in the existing Passbook app in iOS. Previously, users could already fill up their Kids account credit using physical gift cards purchased from brick-and-mortar Apple stores or by setting up an iTunes allowance for their kids.
