New regulations in the U.K. and the European Economic Area may require extra steps for many of your online transactions, which may result in longer checkout times. Apple Pay already satisfies the new requirements, making it a simple and secure way to pay. Using Apple Pay means no additional hassles, like PINs, texts or codes at checkout. Just seamless, safe transactions. Some other payment options, including the Apple Store & iTunes Gift Card, will not be affected by the new regulations.

Get what you love. Seamlessly.

Since the security of Apple Pay already meets these new regulations, you can continue easily making payments in stores and online with the Apple devices you use every day. You can also use Apple Pay to make seamless purchases on iTunes, Apple Music and more. To do this, simply add Apple Pay as a payment method in Settings after you’ve set up Apple Pay.
