How do I accept Apple Pay at my business?
You can choose to automatically or manually accept payments. Go to Settings > Wallet & Apple Pay, then tap Apple Cash. Choose to automatically or manually accept payments.
If you see Accept in the message, tap it. If this is the first payment that you've received or if you turned off the setting to automatically accept payments, then you need to tap to accept the money. Tap Settings > Wallet & Apple Pay, then make sure that you turned on Apple Cash.
If you tap "Accept" here, the money's yours. If you don't want it, for whatever crazy reason it is, select "Reject Payment" instead toward the bottom of the page and the money will remain with the sender. Accepting payments is only one of many things you can do in Apple Pay Cash person-to-person payments.
On your iPad, tap the invite notification or open the Settings app > Wallet & Apple Pay. Under Pending Invitations, tap Apple Card to accept the invite.
Change your default card, address, and preferences for Apple Pay
No, Apple Pay and Apple Wallet aren't the same, but they work together: Apple Wallet is the app (your digital container) that stores your credit/debit cards, loyalty cards, tickets, and passes, while Apple Pay is the technology/service that uses those cards in the Wallet to make secure, contactless payments in stores, online, and in apps. Think of the Wallet as your physical purse and Pay as the tap-to-pay function.
Apple Pay is accepted at over 85 percent of retailers in the U.S., so you can likely use it wherever and however you want. If you're not sure, just ask.
To set up Tap to Pay on iPhone, enable it in the payment app of your choice. To accept a payment, open the app, enter the amount, and present your iPhone to your customer. To pay, the customer holds their card horizontally or places their device directly over the payment symbol.
If a payment card that you use with Apple Pay is declined when you try to make a purchase, contact your bank or card issuer. All Apple Pay transactions are routed to card issuers for approval.
With Tap to Pay on iPhone and a supported app, you can accept in-person, contactless payments, right on your iPhone — from physical debit and credit cards, to Apple Pay and other digital wallets — no extra terminals or hardware needed. It's easy, secure, and private.
Cash App says "recipient unable to receive payment" due to issues like the recipient's account being unverified or having hit limits, security blocks on suspicious activity, poor internet, an outdated app, or a blocked connection between you and the recipient, requiring checks on verification status, limits, security settings, and app updates.
There's no cost to use Apple Pay. Your usual wireless carrier fees may apply. Your standard fees associated with the use of your physical credit or debit card also apply.
Yes, it is. Apple Pay is safer than using a physical card because it uses biometric data to make purchases. Also, Apple Pay doesn't share any of your actual information with the companies you buy from using Apple Pay.

If you can't add a payment method
If you're using an accepted payment method but your Apple Account is set to a different country or region, change your country or region. If the Add button is grayed out, you might be in a Family Sharing group and you use purchase sharing.
To change these settings, choose Apple menu > System Settings, then click Wallet & Apple Pay in the sidebar. (You may need to scroll down.) You can add a card using your computer's camera or by typing the card information. Click Add Card, then follow the onscreen instructions.
To accept Apple Pay as a business, enable "Tap to Pay on iPhone" in a supported payment app (like Stripe, Square, Adyen) to use your iPhone as a terminal; for personal money sent via Messages, accept it in the Wallet app by setting up Apple Cash, choosing manual or automatic acceptance in the card details, and confirming the payment in Messages or the app as needed.
Use Messages to request a payment
Open the Wallet app on your iPhone, tap your Apple Cash card, then look for the payment in Latest Transactions. Tap the payment, tap the payment again, then tap Reject Payment.
