Is there an equivalent of a .pkpass file for Google Wallet Items?

There's no equivalent of a .pkpass file for Google Wallet Items. Google Wallet Items are managed online by the Google Wallet system. The impact of this is that there's no thing — besides a link — that can be shared by email or MMS. This is good for managing duplication, perhaps, but (slightly) limits distribution channels to web only.

Father, husband, geek. I love solving interesting problems and building useful things online. Recently, it's all about mobile ad tech and video personalization. (I'm the head of technology at Vehicle.) Being part of the open source community and contributing back is very important and I tend to contribute to any project I use heavily. When I'm not working, I love to work.

    Apple's Passbook uses .pkpass files to encapsulate the item. These are easily transferable by many mediums (email, mms, etc).

    Does Google provide an equivalent package / file for Google Wallet Items?
