Q: When will apple pay work with a bank account?

Greetings everyone,

 

I am curious to see if there are any plans to make Apple Pay work with a checking or savings account with my local bank.     I see the option for a Debit Card, but my current card is not supported at this time.    

 

This would be so much more convenient rather than switching to a new credit card.   

 

Thank you in advance for any suggestions or help that may be submitted to this question.

    Hello there, Vader74.

     

    Thanks for the great question.

     

    Although Apple is actively working with banks to increase participation in Apple Pay, it is ultimately up to the Financial Institution to adopt it. The following Knowledge Base provides an active list of participating Banks:

     

    Apple Pay participating issuers - Apple Support <https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204916>

     

    As one of the footnotes mentions, you may want to contact your Bank or Financial Institution directly for more information on their possible participation.

     

    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.

     

    Kind Regards,

    Pedro.

    Hi Pedro,

    Thank you very much for the reply!   I have reached out to my bank about a week ago and still have not had a reply.   I hope to hear back from them soon and I am very interested in advocating their participation in Pay.  

     

    I will keep you posted.
