Is it sufficient to simply pass each course, or will the bar for achieving the PoM MicroMasters program credential be higher?

If you achieve a passing score and earn a course certificate in each required course you will earn the MicroMasters credential. The passing grade for each course is independent of the MicroMasters credential. The specific grade is 60% across all PoM courses. When applying to the MIT graduate program, we will use the actual scores in the admissions process – but that is independent of earning the MicroMasters credential.
