How to Add Your BJ's Membership Card to Apple Wallet

BJ's Wholesale keeps the membership card in its own app and uses Apple Pay for payment. Scan your membership barcode into Apple Wallet for faster club access.

BJ's app keeps the membership card inside the app and focuses on ExpressPay and Apple Pay for payment. That is useful at checkout, but it is not the same as a native Apple Wallet membership pass.

BJ's says physical cards are not mailed, the virtual membership card can be scanned at checkout, and current memberships are $60/year for Club or $120/year for Club+. If faster access matters, scan the barcode into Wallet once and keep it there.

What BJ's Actually Supports

BJ's app gives members a digital membership card, coupons, In-Club Mode, pickup check-in, and ExpressPay. The app also focuses on payment features like Apple Pay, not a native Wallet membership pass.

Virtual membership card in the app

Open the BJ's app, then use the digital membership card at checkout.

Physical cards are picked up in club

BJ's says physical membership cards are not mailed and must be picked up at Member Services.

ExpressPay inside the app

Scan items, pay within the app, and show the QR code receipt at the door.

Apple Pay for payment

BJ's accepts Apple Pay as a payment method in ExpressPay and at BJ's Gas.

Apple Pay and Apple Wallet are different

BJ's uses Apple Pay for payment in ExpressPay and at BJ's Gas. If the goal is to show the membership barcode faster, learn how to add a pass to Wallet.

The Workaround: Put the Membership Barcode in Wallet

The barcode is the important part. Scan your BJ's membership card from the plastic card or from the virtual card screen in the BJ's app, and NeatPass turns it into an Apple Wallet pass.

BJ's says the virtual card can be scanned at checkout, so the barcode shown in the app is a valid source when a physical card is not handy. Read more about supported barcode types and import methods before you start.

How it works

NeatPass supports many barcode formats and can import photos, screenshots, or files. Review supported barcode types and import methods if this is your first pass.

Step-by-Step: BJ's Card to Apple Wallet

1

Find the barcode source

Use the physical BJ's card or the virtual membership card in the app. BJ's says the digital card can be scanned at checkout, so both sources can work.
2

Open NeatPass

Launch NeatPass and start a new pass. Import a photo of the card, a clean screenshot, or an image file from your library.
3

Capture the barcode clearly

Make sure the barcode is fully visible, not cropped, and free of glare. If the first image is blurry, retake it with better lighting.
4

Review the pass details

Confirm the membership barcode and any visible text before saving. This helps avoid a wrong scan at checkout.
5

Add it to Apple Wallet

Tap Add to Wallet and keep the original card or app as backup until the pass has been tested once in the club.

Pro tip

Use a clear pass name and color so the BJ's card is easy to spot. A lock screen widget can surface NeatPass faster, and customizing the design helps similar cards stand out.

Why Put BJ's in Wallet

Wallet gives the membership barcode a better home than the BJ's app alone.

Fast lock screen access

Show the pass quickly instead of opening the BJ's app at the door.

Works offline

No internet needed once the pass is saved in Apple Wallet.

Location-aware

The pass can be easier to reach when you are at the club.

Auto-brightens for scanning

The screen can brighten automatically so the barcode is easier to scan.

Less app switching

No need to dig through the BJ's app every time you enter or check out.

Private by default

The pass lives on the device instead of in another account just for card storage.

Quick Access at Checkout

BJ's already gives members a virtual card, and that makes the barcode easy to capture. Moving it into Apple Wallet removes one more app from the checkout routine.

If BJ's ever adds native Wallet support, great. Until then, the barcode-in-Wallet workaround gives you the faster path today.
