What Apple Pay is
Apple Pay is not a payment rail of its own. It is a wallet from Apple that stores your existing Visa, Mastercard or other card and hands the merchant a device specific number and a one time code instead of your real card number. The payment clears over the same card network and is authorised by the same bank, so funding an exchange with Apple Pay is funding it with your card. Apple lists supported countries and regions across Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East, Latin America, Africa and North America, but each bank decides whether its own cards can be added.
- Speed
- Instant, because it is an ordinary card authorisation approved in a second or two, exactly as fast as tapping the underlying card.
- Cost of the rail
- Apple states that it charges no fee when you pay with Apple Pay in stores, online or in apps, so your cost is whatever the underlying card costs, including any cash advance treatment by the issuer.
- Limits
- Apple Pay adds no ceiling of its own, so your card issuer's per transaction and daily limits apply unchanged, and the card must be from a participating bank in a supported country.
