Which Button Do I Press for Apple Pay?

Apple Pay, a convenient and secure mobile payment service, simplifies the checkout process with a tap of your iPhone or Apple Watch. To initiate Apple Pay, the button you press depends on your device’s model and authentication method.

For iPhones with Face ID:

• Double-click the side button located on the right edge of your iPhone.

For iPhones with Touch ID:

• Double-click the Home button located at the bottom of your iPhone.

Authentication via Face ID or Passcode:

Once you double-click the appropriate button, you will need to authenticate the payment using either Face ID or your passcode, depending on your device’s settings.

• Face ID: Look directly at your iPhone’s front-facing camera, and it will scan your face to confirm your identity.
• Passcode: Enter your four-digit passcode into the on-screen keypad.

Unlocking Apple Wallet:

The successful authentication unlocks Apple Wallet, which is where your payment information is stored. Your default payment card will be presented on the screen. If you wish to use a different card, tap the card icon at the bottom of the Apple Wallet app and select the desired card.

Payment Process:

• Hold your iPhone or Apple Watch near the contactless payment terminal at the checkout counter.
• Keep your device there until the payment is complete.
• You will hear a chime and receive a confirmation message or on-screen notification indicating successful payment.

Remember that you do not need to unlock your iPhone or open the Apple Wallet app for Apple Pay to function. Simply double-click the appropriate button, authenticate with Face ID or passcode, and hold your device near the payment terminal.
