The battle pass is considered an in-game purchase though, since you have to buy it with Battlefield Currency. DICE and EA stated multiple times that your in-game purchases follow you to any platform you play on.
It makes no sense to make someone buy the battle pass multiple times. Not even Call of Duty makes their players buy those battle pass multiple times. The COD battle passes are available on whatever platform you're playing on after purchasing it once.
Editing my post to add the screen shot from EA's own blog post about cross progression in this game. It says purchases carry over to other platforms and the battle pass is obtained via an in game purchase. You buy it with Battlefield Currency. The battle pass is also not listed in the excluded items list. So according to the information EA has provided, it should transfer across platforms after purchasing it only once.
I didn't purchase it with coins mine was through ultimate edtion on xbox however its only active on xbox and only gives free tiers on playstation from what ea rep said the pass doesnt transfer only store items like skins

It doesn't matter if you purchased it with Battlefield currency or with the Ultimate Edition. The Season 1 battle pass itself is purchasable with Battlefield Currency, which makes it an in-game purchase. And according to EA's blog about cross progression, it's supposed to be available on all platforms if you've purchased it once.
There's no way they would make Ultimate Edition owners buy the battle pass twice but let Standard Edition owners that bought the pass in game have it cross platform. They've made an error somewhere and need to fix it. No other cross progression game makes their players purchase their battle passes more than once.
