Apple Pay

I’m from Saudi Arabia, so I don’t have a social security number, and I want to use Apple Pay, but I couldn’t because I have to put a social security number. What do you have to do to use this feature?

You cannot use Apple Cash (person to person payments) outside of the USA.

The social security is only for Apple Cash, which is only available to US customers. Just head to settings>wallet and Apple Pay and turn off the "Apple Cash" toggle switch. That will disable Apple Cash and you'll be able to use the regular Apple Pay, which is indeed available in Saudi Arabia, by adding your credit or debit cards.
