Which iPhones can I install Apple Pay on

Smartphones that support mobile money transfer have a built-in NFC chip that allows you to exchange data over a short distance. Such a chip was not installed in earlier flagships, so there is a problem in using the mobile transaction system on some Apple devices. Consider which iPhones currently support contactless payments:

• iPhone 6/6 Plus;
• iPhone 6s/6s Plus;
• iPhone 7/7 Plus;
• iPhone SE.

To the dismay of many users, the revolutionary iPhone 5, 5c and 5s do not support Apple Pay. The only possible solution for owners of the flagships of the fifth model is to use the development of the Cupertino company using the Apple Watch smart watch. All you have to do is sync your iPhone 5 with your smartwatch.

In order to use the company’s payment system smoothly, the following requirements must be verified:

1. Apple Pay device model.
2. The card that the user adds to the system must match the list of supported cards on the company’s website.
3. The latest version of the OS on the gadget.
4. Current Apple ID account with iCloud linked on the phone.

By standard, the Wallet application (wallet), which performs the task of adding cards and using payment from Apple, is preinstalled on the iPhone. If it is missing, you will have to contact the support service or service shop for help.

Contactless transactions for Sberbank customers

In order to connect the contactless payment system, you need to install the Wallet application on your phone after authorization using your personal Apple ID. After a successful login, you will be able to add a payment card. By selecting the appropriate function, the user will be asked to take a picture of his personal bank card. You can opt out of this method by entering all the data manually.

Next, you will need to confirm the entered information by entering the code that Sberbank will send to the user’s number. If words such as “Card activated. MasterCard Standard Ready for Apple Pay”, then you can start successfully using the contactless payment system.

For Sberbank customers, connecting the contactless payment function is much easier and faster. All that is required is to launch the Wallet application and select the appropriate bank card, which will automatically appear in the wallet collection.

Owners of synchronized smartwatches will receive a notification immediately after activating the card on their iPhone, which will offer to add this card to the device. The program will prompt you to come up with a small password, after which the user in the Wallet application will be able to add a card, after filling in the necessary information. The only thing that will need to be done is to confirm your identity again by entering the code from the SMS from Sberbank.

Russian banks that support Apple Pay

Apple Pay goes to any smartphones on the list. Using the above phone models, you can make any payment transaction through Apple Pay. New models of Apple smartphones do not require additional conditions for the application to work.

Apple Pay supports a large number of banks from around the world.

Apple Pay cards in Russia:

Using the system

It’s worth figuring out which older phone models work with Apple Pay. Unfortunately, there is no service on iPhones 5, 5c and iPhone 5s and it cannot be installed, but it is with the help of these models that you can set up Apple Pay on iWatch. However, you will not be able to pay for purchases using older phone models.

This is how Apple Pay works – the answer to the question “which phones support the system” is the presence of this module.

Due to the fact that NFC technology works at some distance from the terminal, many people are worried about the security of the profile. It’s worth saying that Apple Pay has a strong security that requires you to enter a one-time password when logging in, as well as confirmation using the Touch ID system on your device. An attacker will not get into your account.

Let’s consider what are the ways to use the application for mobile payments. After activating the card, you can safely start using this system, paying for purchases in supermarkets and shops. To do this, just bring your iPhone to the terminal without opening the Wallet application. The phone will automatically recognize the payment device and offer to make a fingerprint scanner. After the user touches Touch ID with his finger, money for the corresponding purchase will be withdrawn from the bank card.

It is worth remembering that the scope of the development of the apple company is quite wide. The tool has been designed for users to facilitate any activity related to transactional payments. Anyone can make purchases in the online store with one click, as well as use various add-on services in a special application store. Now it is enough to pay for any service by touching Touch ID with your finger.
