Aug 15, 2016 1:14 PM in response to Fran Gby MoonJ.,★HelpfulHi Fran G,
I understand that you want to add a physical Apple Store gift card to your Wallet. I know it's nice to have this ready on the go, so I'm happy to provide some clarification for this process.
To use an Apple Store gift card with Apple Wallet, check out the response here by Adobephile: Can I enter an apple gift card (physical one) into passbook?
- Peel off the seal on the back of the Apple Store Gift Card to reveal a QR code alongside a letter code, similar to what you would see on an iTunes Gift card.
- Open the Wallet app and tap to add a new Pass.
- Choose to Scan Code to add the pass
- Scan the QR code you revealed on the gift card
Enjoy your gift card, and thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Cheers!

Aug 15, 2016 1:24 PM in response to Fran Gby Fran G,Unfortunately that did not work as the scanned code came up with the message "No Pass Available for This Code," on two different Apple Store Gift cards.
I quit the Wallet app and even turned the phone off and then on to see this would have any effect to no avail.
I just realized that perhaps this could be an IOS 10 beta issue. IOS 10 beta 5 was just delivered, so I will install that and try again. If is does not work, I will look for another pass card to see if it can be added to Wallet. I will come back and provide the results whether positive or negative.
Thank you!

Aug 17, 2016 10:16 PM in response to Fran Gby Fran G,I still get the same error "No Pass Available for This Code" under the most recent version of IOS 10 beta. I don't know if it is the IOS or something else that is preventing the cards from being read.
