The front of your digital card lists your Name, Member Level, Member ID with Barcode, Expiration Date and, (if eligible) icons for the North American Reciprocal Museum (NARM) and Council for American Jewish Museums (CAJM) reciprocal programs. The back of your digital card will provide a full listing of your member benefits.

How will my secondary member receive their digital membership card?

For Dual Members and above:  For memberships with two names listed, two cards will be delivered to the primary member in two separate emails with both names listed on both cards. You may either forward the secondary member the email and card or download both cards and “share” the card through Apple Wallet or Wallet Passes.

For memberships where a secondary member name is not designated but rather is listed as “Guest of [Primary Member Name]”, you can download both cards to your wallet and use the ‘Guest Of’ version for any guest that accompanies you or “share” the card through Apple Wallet or Wallet Passes to a person of your choice.

How do I share my second digital card?

After installing the card on your first device, you just need to enter the card on that phone and use the “Share” button that is located on the back of the card to distribute the pass to other members that are included in your membership plan.

iPhone | Search for a three-dot icon at the top right of your card.

• Once you tap on the icon, search for an icon that looks like an arrow over a square on the top right of your screen.
• You will see sharing options like Airdrop, Mail, etc… Use one of those options to share your card (we recommend you use the Mail option).

Android | Search for an “i” icon at the bottom of your card.

• Once you tap on this icon, you will see a button that says “share pass”. Tap on this button.
• You will see sharing options like Mail, SMS, etc… Use one of those options to share your card (we recommend you use the Mail option).

If you are using GooglePay: due to Google’s internal structure, the sharing option is not available for the membership cards. However, members can forward the email to the person who wants to download the card and use the Google Pay option as usual. The big difference between Google Pay and Wallet Passes is the same link can be used for both members.
