Set up Apple Pay on iPad

Set up Apple Pay to make secure payments in apps and on websites that support Apple Pay. In Messages, you can send and receive money from friends and family or make purchases using Business Chat.

Add a credit or debit card

Go to Settings > Wallet & Apple Pay.
Tap Add Cards. You may be asked to sign in with your Apple ID.
Do one of the following:
- Add a new card: Position iPad so that your card appears in the frame, or enter the card details manually.
- Add your previous cards: Select the card associated with your Apple ID, cards you use with Apple Pay on your other devices, or cards that you removed. Tap Continue, then enter the CVV number of each card.

Alternatively, you may be able to add your card from the app of the bank or card issuer.

The card issuer determines whether your card is eligible for Apple Pay, and may ask you for additional information to complete the verification process.

On another iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Go to Settings > [ your name ], tap the lost iPad, then tap Remove All Cards (below Apple Pay).
Call the issuers of your cards.

If you remove cards, you can add them again later.

If you sign out of iCloud in Settings > [ your name ], all your credit and debit cards for Apple Pay are removed from iPad. You can add the cards again the next time you sign in.
