Safari for iOS6 supports the mime type: application.com/vnd.apple.pkpass This means you can download & open Passbook .pkpass files from a URL.

It seems that Facebook's browser does not support this mime type and therefore you can't download Passbook files from within Facebook. Instead you need to 'Open in Safari'. This is a problem because a great way for a business to distribute links to a Passbook promotion (e.g. a coupon, membership, gift card or event ticket) is via a Facebook marketing campaign.

How can I find the right people to contact at Facebook to request that Facebook iOS App browser supports the .pkpass MIME type?

Thanks if you can help, Andrew

This should be working as of the 5.4 version of the Facebook for iOS app.
