Set up in seconds. Right on your iPhone. Apple Pay is built into iPhone, Apple Watch, Mac, iPad, and Apple Vision Pro. To get started on iPhone, open the Wallet app and tap the plus symbol.

When you want to pay, just double-click, tap, and you’re set. You still earn your card’s rewards and benefits — so you won’t miss out on any points or miles. Pay the way that works for you.
