8. How are Apple Pay transactions protected?

For every payment you make using your iPhone, iPad or Mac, you must authenticate yourself using Face ID, Touch ID or the passcode you use to unlock your device.

Your Apple Watch is protected by the passcode that only you know, and this passcode is required every time you put on your Apple Watch or when you pay using Apple Pay. Your card details are never shared with the seller.

When you pay in shops, neither Apple nor your device sends your card number to sellers. When you pay within apps and on the web in Safari, the seller will only receive information such as the name, email address and billing or shipping address that you provided at checkout.

Apple Pay retains anonymous information about the transaction, such as the approximate purchase amount. This information cannot be traced back to you and never includes what you are buying. Apps using Apple Pay must have a privacy policy that you can see, explaining how they use your data.
