How You Can Check Out Faster on Amazon using Apple Pay

Hey there! Do you frequently shop on Amazon from your iPhone or other Apple device? If so, you should enable Apple Pay as your payment method for lightning fast checkout.

A Quick History First

Back in 2014 when Apple Pay first launched, only a few major retailers supported it. But adoption has skyrocketed. Now over 85% of stores allow contactless payments through Apple Pay. This includes everywhere from your neighborhood coffee shop to tech giants like Amazon.

As of 2022, Apple Pay facilitated over 6 billion transactions amounting to over $1 trillion in purchase volume. Impressive!

Okay, Let‘s Get Your Apple Pay Set Up for Amazon

Below I‘ll walk you through exactly how to use Apple Pay on Amazon in 3 simple steps:

Step 1: Apply for an Apple Card

Apple Card is a credit card that lives natively in your Apple Wallet app. It works seamlessly with Apple Pay.

If you don‘t have one yet, I highly recommend requesting an Apple Card here from your iPhone. The application process takes less than 5 minutes.

You‘ll instantly receive a virtual card to use right away with Apple Pay. Then your physical titanium Apple Card will arrive in the mail within a week. Pretty cool!

Step 2: Shop on Amazon

Shop on the Amazon Shopping app just like normal. Browse for what you need and add items to your cart.

When ready to check out, tap into your cart and proceed to the payment details screen. This is where you‘ll select Apple Pay.

Pro Tip: Make sure you‘re using the latest version of the Amazon Shopping app for full Apple Pay support.

Step 3: Check Out with Apple Pay

Under payment method, select "Add a credit or debit card". You‘ll then be prompted to authorize with Face ID, Touch ID, or your device passcode.

Double check that all billing details from your Apple Card populated correctly, then finish your purchase!

In just a few seconds you‘ve securely checked out using your Apple devices and payment methods. Super convenient!
