Can I add the Miles & More card to Apple Wallet?

Yes. The Miles & More app includes a digital service card with an Add to Apple Wallet button. Open the Card menu in the app, then tap Add to Apple Wallet at the bottom of the screen. Once added, the card lives in the Wallet app and the button switches to Open in Apple Wallet.

What is the Miles & More service card used for?

The digital service card identifies the membership for Miles & More partners, Lufthansa check-in, and Lufthansa lounge access. For lounge access or Fast Lane, the card is shown at the counter. The card also carries the membership number and status tier.

What are the Miles & More status tiers?

Miles & More has Frequent Traveller, Senator, and HON Circle Member status above the entry Member level. Frequent Traveller and Senator map to Star Alliance Gold, which unlocks Star Alliance lounge access and priority services across member airlines worldwide.

Will my status show on the boarding pass too?

Yes, when the Miles & More number is linked to the booking before check-in, the Lufthansa boarding pass shows the Star Alliance status marker. The service card in Wallet is separate and acts as the membership identifier for partners and lounges.

Miles & More Card in Apple Wallet: Add Your Status Card

Q: How does NeatPass help with a Miles & More card?

If only the physical plastic card is on hand, or a partner loyalty card has no native Wallet support, NeatPass scans the barcode and creates a Wallet pass with the same data. The pass works offline, sits on the lock screen, and keeps the original card image as a backup.

The Miles & More service card identifies the membership at check-in, with partners, and at the lounge. Carrying the plastic card or hunting for the digital one inside an app slows things down at the counter. The good news: Miles & More now puts a digital service card straight into Apple Wallet.

This guide covers the native Add to Apple Wallet flow in the Miles & More app, explains the Frequent Traveller, Senator, and HON Circle status tiers, and shows the NeatPass barcode route for the physical card or partner loyalty cards that have no Wallet support.

Add the Miles & More Card from the App

The Miles & More app includes a digital service card with a built-in Add to Apple Wallet button. Once added, the card lives in the Wallet app on the home screen and the membership number is always one swipe away.

Native Wallet support is built in

The digital service card is reached through the Card menu in the Miles & More app. Tap Add to Apple Wallet at the bottom of the card. If the card is already in Wallet, the button reads Open in Apple Wallet instead. The card is always ready for use with Miles & More partners, for Lufthansa check-in, or for Lufthansa lounge access.

The native Add to Apple Wallet flow is the cleanest path for the service card itself.

Install the Miles & More app

Download Miles & More from the App Store and sign in with the membership account. The account holds the mileage balance, the current status, and the digital service card.

Open the Card menu

Tap the Card item in the navigation bar. The digital service card appears with the membership number, the cardholder name, and the current status tier.

Tap Add to Apple Wallet

At the bottom of the card, tap Add to Apple Wallet. iOS opens Wallet with a preview of the card. Tap Add in the top-right corner to confirm.

Open it from Wallet

The card now sits in the Wallet app on the home screen. Back in the Miles & More app, the button switches to Open in Apple Wallet, which jumps straight to the saved card.

Status Tiers and What They Unlock

The card shows the status tier, and the tier decides which lounges and priority services apply. Above the entry Member level, Miles & More has three elite tiers:

Frequent Traveller - The first elite tier, mapping to Star Alliance Gold with priority check-in, extra baggage, and lounge access on qualifying flights
Senator - The next tier up, also Star Alliance Gold, adding Lufthansa Senator Lounge access and guest privileges
HON Circle Member - The top invitation-based tier, with HON Circle Lounge access and the highest level of priority service
Star Alliance Gold - The alliance status that Frequent Traveller and Senator carry, unlocking lounge access and priority across Star Alliance airlines worldwide

For lounge access or Fast Lane, the service card is shown at the counter. Having it in Wallet means the membership number and status are ready without opening an app or digging for the plastic card.

When You Need the NeatPass Route

The native flow covers the Miles & More service card itself. Two cases sit outside it: holding only the physical plastic card with its printed barcode, and partner or co-brand loyalty cards that have no native Apple Wallet support at all.

Many loyalty programs still ship a plastic card with no Wallet handover. For those cards that lack native Wallet support, NeatPass scans the barcode and creates a Wallet pass with the same data.

Open NeatPass and scan

Open NeatPass, tap the plus button, and point the camera at the barcode on the physical card. On-device AI reads the barcode and detects the format automatically.

Add the card details

Enter the card name and a label so it is easy to find. NeatPass keeps the original card image alongside the pass as a backup.

Review and adjust

Check that the barcode and label look right. Adjust the design or color so the card stands out in Wallet.

Add to Apple Wallet

Tap Add to Apple Wallet. The pass opens in Wallet with the same barcode the original card carries, ready to scan at the counter.

NeatPass works with every supported barcode format and offers several import methods, so a screenshot, a photo, or the plastic card can all become a Wallet pass.

Why a Loyalty Card Belongs in Wallet

Whether added natively or through NeatPass, a card in Apple Wallet behaves the same way and brings the same everyday benefits.

One swipe to the card

Swipe up from the lock screen and the card is there, no app launch and no login

Works offline

Wallet shows the card and barcode with no signal, which matters at busy airport counters and lounges

Fast scan at the counter

Auto-brightness kicks in when the barcode shows, so the counter scanner reads it on the first try

Status at a glance

The membership number and tier sit on the card face, ready for partners, check-in, and lounge entry

A card in Wallet also surfaces through a lock screen widget, which puts the membership number a double-tap away without opening anything.

When the Card Does Not Behave

A few patterns come up with both the native card and a NeatPass pass. Knowing them ahead of time saves a scramble at the counter.

Usually works smoothly

The native service card added from the Card menu of the latest Miles & More app
A NeatPass pass built from a clean, uncropped barcode on the physical card
Offline display of both the native card and a NeatPass pass at the lounge or check-in
Status and membership number showing on the card face for partner and lounge staff

Worth a second look

An older Miles & More app version without the Add to Apple Wallet button, which a quick update fixes
A barcode photographed at an angle or with glare, which can fail to scan; retake it in even light
A status change that has not synced; reopen the native card so Wallet pulls the latest tier
Counter staff who still want the physical card for lounge access, so keep it as a backup

Both the native card and a NeatPass pass work in airplane mode and on weak networks, and a NeatPass pass can be styled with custom colors and design so it stands out among the rest of the cards in Wallet.
