When Google introduced support for loyalty cards in December, it was initially limited to basic membership programs and other pass types.

The documentation states that passes are automatically added on all your synced devices, but your watch must be running Wear OS 3.5 or later and the Google Wallet app on the watch must be version 23.46.x or higher.
