Translation Management of a Pass Template

Importance of multilingual cards

In the retail or the event worlds, it is crucial to offer cards in different languages to cater to an increasingly international clientele. Providing a multilingual pass also helps avoid any misinterpretation, which is particularly essential during events.

Steps to manage translations of a pass template

Go to “Settings” then to “General”.

In the internationalization section, you have the option to add the languages you want. For example, to add the Spanish language, simply enter the ISO code for the language, which is “es”. Then, click on the small cross to confirm before saving.

You can find the ISO code of a language right here.

You can add as many languages as you want.

To set a default language, just click on the chosen language. Don’t forget to click on “save” on the top of the screen.

Now, in the template menu, select your template. You will find the newly added languages. Click on one of them to preview the card.

To translate a field, click on this small icon:

You will have the option to translate according to the languages.

⚠️ You can only translate a field that has the translation icon.

Steps for bulk translation

If you have many languages and don’t want to lose time translating the fields one by one on the template editor, you can bulk edit them!
To do so, you have to go on the “Locales” section, in the “Tools” menu.

Choose the pass template you want to translate, click on the three dots on the right and click on “bulk edit”.

From this interface, you can translate all the fields.

Fields highlighted in orange indicate that they have not yet been translated. Simply translate the fields to the corresponding language before saving.

You can export the file in Excel format for easier handling.

Once you’ve done modifying your Excel file, you can import it on The Wallet Crew.
