Okay, that's what I thought.
The Streetpass for this game is basically growing your tree in Kakariko Village. The more you pass someone that has Streetpass on for ALBW, your tree grows a little bit and produces apples that heal you. Red apples heal one heart and green apples heal three.
But that's not all!
In ALBW when you pass someone you also get the opportunity to fight their Link in shadow form, and each Link has a bounty. Depending on the items they have the bounty grows and can be up to 999 rupees. You can set up your Shadow Link with the old man in Kakariko, but make sure you equip the items you want your Shadow Link to have. Makes it difficult for the person receiving your Shadow Link. You can also fight AI Links at certain areas in the game the more you Streetpass. They also have rupee rewards.
