Payment for any purchases through special mobile devices in smartphones is becoming the norm of everyday life. However, not everyone immediately adapts to innovation. Setting up a card to pay for purchases through the iPhone is a simple task - after all, the iPhone was created precisely as the crown of simplicity and aesthetics.
Instructions on how to bind a card to an iPhone for payment
Most of us leave home with three basic necessities: keys, wallet, and smartphone. But over the past few years, more and more people are bringing the last two objects together. No, we're not talking about phone boxes that also have cash in them. Your smartphone can store your financial data and use it to make secure, instant payments in the store. It may sound vaguely futuristic, but you can check with your mobile phone if the place where you shop has the necessary equipment.
If you are new to the world of application-based payments, but want to move from the old approach to working with cashless payments on your cards, then setting up everything you need is quite simple. In fact, you already have everything you need for this - right in your IPhone.
Apple Pay first came out on September 9, 2014. It is now preinstalled on most Apple hardware products, including the Apple Watch and iPhone (at least version 6 or later). You can use this program to pay for purchases on the Internet, in applications, in physical stores: Apple Pay is accepted by any point that supports contactless payments, such as BestBuy, Staples, Disney-Store, Starbucks, Walgreens and many others.
Apple makes it incredibly easy to get started with the Apple Pay app by allowing you to quickly link it to your existing iTunes credit or debit card. Of course, your bank must definitely support Apple-Pay, but if the bank for some reason does not support mobile payments, then you can set them up both on the Internet and in the store - with just a few taps.
Banks that support Apple Pay are supported by most financial institutions and credit card companies in the United States. Apple provides an updated list of all financial institutions that accept Apple Pay.
