Apple Pay update shipping contact

I found something that worked for me - I had the same problem: was getting the “update shipping contact” error message when trying to use Apple Pay. Even after I added a shipping address it still gave me the error.

Only after I added both my phone number and email as well did it start working.

So I was having the same issue, and found this thread on the community forum. Even after removing the Target rewards cash, it was giving me the Update Shipping Contact message, but I was on the shopping cart screen instead of the checkout screen, and there was a space here that asked me to provide my phone number. That wasn’t there when I was in the check out screen on the Target app.

I went back into checkout, added the Target Circle cash, and tried checking out with the same Update Shipping Contact error, no phone number option. I backed out to the previous screen, the Cart screen, and looked over my order. It showed the Target Circle cash this time since I had added it during the Checkout process, and I had an Apple Pay button to the right of Checkout. I clicked Apple Pay instead of Checkout and got the Update Shipping Contact error with an option to add my phone number. Once I selected my phone number, Apple pay went through with the circle cash. So it is possible, just with a convoluted way to get there.

I’ve found that the only way I can use Apple Pay in the Target app is to NOT try to use my Target rewards, i.e. $10 or $15 gift cards for purchasing items Target gives rewards for, like Woolite and Tide laundry detergent. I even chatted with a customer service rep and he apologized but could not fix my issue. I just purchased without using the rewards that Target gave me for shopping at Target …. seems like they freely give them, but don’t actually want you to use them! Once I deleted the rewards from my cart, my Apple Pay worked just fine. Instead of spending $44 on my cart, I had to complete the order without the gift cards, making it $69 instead. Which honestly sucks.

When it says update info hit your contact the check the box where your phone number is. Problem solved. Only needs you to do that

I’m currently having the same issue. Also trying to shop with my Target app. I’ve done all the recommended steps but nothing is helping.

Same thing happened. I use Apple Pay on Target app. Weekly. Suddenly needed shipping info. For a pickup order. Did ALL the things. Nothing. Went online. Logged in to Target. Clicked Apple Pay there. Worked. But I deleted the app and went to bring it back. Would not allow Apple Pay as an option though it clearly states it. Grrr. I honestly hate buying from companies that don’t have an Apple Pay option. I don’t want to enter cc every time nor do I want every company having cc on file. Get with the times.

I had the same issue but was not using anything but apple pay. My correct address and phone number were in every field, but it only worked when I sent the gift card to a phone number instead of to an email.

I just could not get the app to work. I believe it is an error in the app itself I updated everything and followed all instructions but ended up just going to the website and making my purchase 😅🤦🏼‍♀️ I was able to use my gift cards and Apple Pay

So this was happening to me as well in the app when I would combine my gift card + target circle. I was trying to place the order for drive up on the app but I kept getting “update shipping contact” no matter what I did it still did not work. The only way I could use Apple pay with my gift card + target circle is if I payed with Apple Pay on target.com

This doesn’t work either

if you don’t use Apple Pay you can complete your purchase. Store your credit card info in the target app, then click checkout instead of ApplePay. Under payment method if ApplePay is selected select edit to change it to the credit card. Then it will complete the purchase.

I found out if you update your email address (even if it is the same one), the problem is fixed. I was able to fix this by adding my email to Starbucks and target and that fixed the shipping error message.

Just had the same issue today. I actually had to place the order via the Target website for Apple Pay to work. I didn’t use my Target rewards points, but I did have a gift card applied to the balance.

SOLVED

So, I had the same issues as all above, I suspected that Apple in it's recent OSX update coded the address fields wrong and in my case that looks to be correct.

Apple Wallet REQUIRES you to enter something into the "Apt or Suite (optional)" field even though it is clearly OPTIONAL.

I simply added a "." in that field and then all apple pay transactions processed from there.

Come on Apple, seriously?

Hey, have you found the fix? The same is happening to me. I have tried everything, nothing works.
