FAQs

Apple Pay is a digital wallet from Apple which lets you use a compatible iPhone, Apple Watch or iPad to make secure contactless purchases in stores, within selected apps and participating websites in Safari, on your MyLife MyFinance Visa debit card.

When you make a purchase, Apple Pay uses a device-specific number and a unique transaction code. Your full card number is never stored on your device or on Apple servers, and it can’t be shared with merchants. Apple Pay doesn’t keep transaction information that can be tied back to you, ensuring all purchases are private.

Apple Pay works with:

  • iPhone SE (and later versions) in stores, within apps, and on the web in Safari
  • iPad Pro, iPad Air 2, and iPad mini 3 (and later versions) within apps and on the web in Safari
  • Apple Watch in stores and within apps
  • Mac for payments on the web in Safari
