Ability to Turn Off GradPass Wallet
William Vitagliano
Hello - at my institution we require that our students print off their GradPass and bring it to them to their ceremony, however the new feature to add your GradPass to your wallet cannot be turned off which will cause confusion to our students. Could you please look into being able to turn off this feature to meet the specific needs of each institution.

The ability to add information to the Wallet version of (Grad/Stage) Pass such as our custom Honors designation or text/symbols. Not having the ability to do this creates a backup of students for honors-related regalia. e.g. medallions and cords are provided at the ceremony at our institution. Since a custom field is not currently displayable on the Wallet version, we cannot efficiently provide them the regallia without having to look each student up manually that does not have the full grad/stage pass (either by lists or scanning the grad pass using check-in) each time, even if they choose to use the Wallet feature (about 50%) of them do even when instructed not to.
If the Wallet feature was toggleable, then we could revert back to Grad/Stage Pass only which has the full version of their info on it which includes our custom honors designations.
Thank you,
Justin, UAkron

I second the ability to Toggle On/Off the Wallet Grad/Stage Pass feature since it is not currently editable to include custom text. Even if we ask students not to use a feature, they ultimately will, if it is available to them.

Hi William, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand that your institution requires students to print their GradPass for the ceremony, and we appreciate the unique needs of each organization.
The digital GradPass and wallet integration were designed to enhance convenience and accessibility for graduates. However, we recognize that this may not align with every institution's process. Currently, the wallet feature is a standard offering, but we are continuously gathering feedback to explore configurable options in the future.
For now, we recommend clearly communicating the printing requirement to your students through your ceremony communications to minimize confusion or consider our physical card offering. Please feel free to reach out to your CSM about this and they can help.
We will keep you posted on updates related to toggling the wallets feature off. Thanks again!
