Apple Pay is the newest and most convenient way to buy with your phone. Apple’s digital currency service, Apple Pay, powers mobile payments in many of the largest stores.
Amazon Took Apple Pay By Amazon In 2022
Apple Pay is only available in more than 2 million U.S. shops, however, Amazon is not. Despite not accepting Apple Pay at Amazon, Apple Wallet and Apple Card cards can be used to make Amazon purchases. Amazon takes all major credit and debit cards, plus personal checking accounts and EBT cards.
Why isn’t Amazon taking Apple Pay?
Amazon doesn’t take Apple Pay because there’s no direct agreement in place with Apple to use its digital payment service.
Apple Pay can’t be used as payment because it isn’t integrated with Amazon.com.
Apple Pay works best for online shopping because you can pay by your phone and not with a credit card. Amazon doesn’t even have to worry about this since all of their payments are already digital.
Plus, Amazon isn’t missing out on much business just by not taking Apple Pay. Amazon, the largest online retailer, has a global revenue of $386 billion each year and is growing every year without Apple Pay.
Amazon has not yet indicated any plans for Apple Pay. Therefore, Apple Card may be the best option for shoppers who want to pay using this method of payment.
Amazon Apple Card Purchases:
Apple Pay isn’t available on Amazon. But, Apple Card can be used for payment.
Apple Cards were launched in August 2019, and are the tech giant’s flagship credit card. They were made primarily to be used for Apple Pay on iPhones, Apple Watches, and Apple Pay.
Apple Cards accept Mastercard payments, as Apple Cards use Mastercard’s payment processing network.
Enter your Apple Card information as usual when shopping on Amazon.
By visiting your accounts, you can add a different payment option by entering your Apple Card number, expiry dates, and security codes as required.
Save your Apple Card on Amazon to make Apple Pay your next favorite payment method.
With saved payment preferences, you can shop on Amazon.com or the Amazon app and use an Apple Card or another credit card to pay in just one click.
This is the same ease Apple Pay payment methods are well-known for. Even though Amazon does not exclusively accept Apple Pay, it still wants millions to be able to use Apple Pay every day.
Amazon: What can I pay for?
Amazon takes almost all of the most popular payment methods, other than Apple Pay.
Amazon can accept all major credit/debit cards.
Amazon.com Store Card & Amazon gift card are the most popular options. EBT cards and personal checking cards are also available.
Simply go to Amazon’s account to set up payment methods. Then, select payment options from the menu and input your card information.
Amazon also saves payment information in a similar fashion to Apple Pay. This makes online shopping easy.
