On April 14, 2025, the Koblenzpass was launched, which is specially designed for citizens, which are related to certain social benefits. According to newskoblenz.de , the passport aims to promote social participation by offering benefits for swimming pools, museums, theater and various events in Koblenz. This initiative is part of a more comprehensive social program that goes beyond the educational and participation package.

The Koblenzpass is both as an app and in an analog form. In the app, users have access to an overview of the discounts and a QR code for uncomplicated redemption. The development of the Koblenzpass was realized by an interplay of IT management, the municipal area calculation center and the social welfare office. It should be emphasized that both the passport and the app are free of charge and remain valid as long as the legitimate social benefits relate.
