# secureElementPass

The pass that contains an accompanying credential that the device stores in the Secure Element.

```
var secureElementPass: PKSecureElementPass? { get }
```

## Discussion

Passes that contain sensitive information — for example, payment cards or digital car keys — store that information in the device’s Secure Element as an instance of [`PKSecureElementPass`](/documentation/PassKit/PKSecureElementPass). Use this property to access the accompanying pass, which you can then use for other operations, such as signing data using a cryptographic signature.
