Save Your Timi Policy in Apple Wallet: Step by Step

Add your Timi auto, moto, RC USA or tourist policy to Apple Wallet in three taps. See exactly what the pass shows and how to use it at checkpoints.

Published: ⏱️ 3 min readBy

The short version

If you've ever dug through your inbox looking for your policy while an officer waits by your window, this fixes that. Every Timi policy — auto, moto, RC USA northbound or tourist southbound — can live on your iPhone's lock screen, ready in one tap.

Before you go
  • Open the policy email on your iPhone, not on a computer.
  • Use Mail or Gmail directly on the phone.
  • Make sure the PDF attachment loaded — it's still your real policy.

Three taps, that's it

1. Open the email Timi sent you when your policy was issued. It has the PDF attached.

2. Tap the official "Add to Apple Wallet" button inside that email.

3. Review the preview and tap "Add." Done — Timi builds the pass with your policy's data, so there's nothing to type.

What shows on the front

📄 Policy number

The same number on your PDF, visible at a glance.

⏰ VENCE

The exact date and hour your coverage ends.

🚗 Vehicle & plates

So whoever checks it matches it to the car in seconds.

📱 QR + claims line

The 24/7 claims number is printed and readable, but iOS won't let you tap it from the front.

Tip

To actually dial the claims number with one tap, flip the pass first — the back is built for that.

Flip it: the back has everything else

Tap the small ⋯ on the pass to turn it over. That's where the pass stops being just a display and becomes usable.

Both claims lines work from any phone, anywhere: Northbound +1 866 223 5677, Southbound +52 81 8864 9322.

When it shows up (and disappears)

The key fact

The pass only surfaces on your lock screen starting the exact day your coverage begins, and it expires at the real hour your policy ends — not a rounded-off date.

Southbound? It's in English

If you're driving into Mexico with US or Canadian plates, your tourist policy pass comes in English, matching the rest of that coverage.

How to actually use it

Don't see the "Add to Wallet" button?

Two likely reasons: you opened the email on a computer instead of the iPhone, or the email got clipped. Open it on the phone, or ask Timi's chat to resend your policy.

Switched to a new iPhone?

The pass doesn't transfer automatically. Open that same original policy email on the new phone and repeat the three taps.

Using Android?

There's no Google Wallet version right now — just save the PDF to your phone's files or downloads. It's the same policy, just without the lock-screen pass.

Important

The pass doesn't renew or charge anything — it only displays your policy. Renewals and payments still go through Timi's chat, and iOS doesn't "read" or update the PDF on its own.

Whether you're covering a car in Mexico, crossing with RC USA, or driving south on foreign plates, the steps are identical because the pass is built the same way for every product. If you're comparing coverage before buying, Timi's chat quotes and issues policies in minutes.

Frequently asked questions

Can I add my Timi policy to Google Wallet?

Not yet — that option doesn't exist right now. Android users should save the PDF to their phone instead of looking for a Wallet button.

Does the Apple Wallet pass replace my PDF policy?

No. The pass is a quick, offline copy for showing officers or adjusters. Your actual policy is always the PDF attached to your issuance email.

Why can't I tap the claims number on the front of the pass?

iOS shows the number as text on the front, but only makes it tappable on the back. Flip the pass with the ⋯ button to dial with one tap.

What happens if I switch iPhones?

The pass stays on the old phone. On the new one, open your original policy email again and tap 'Add to Apple Wallet' to recreate it.

When does the pass appear on my lock screen?

Only starting the day your coverage begins, and it disappears at the exact hour your policy's vigencia ends — not before, not after.
