I just spoke to someone at Goldman Sachs which is the company that handles Apple Card re: PIN number and was told that when asked for a pin to type in all zeros. We’ll see if that is true but I still think they should allow us to create personalized pins

I believe Apple Card support doesn’t have a clarity on this question and also looks like the card can technically be used only in the US. I tried to use the Apple Card at the Dubai airport and it asked me for a PIN. Unfortunately, I was not able to do the transaction without a PIN and I used another card for the successful payment. Only the US has credit cards being used without a PIN and most of the countries like India, UAE, Australia and European countries require PIN for a credit card as well.
If I’m wrong and if Apple really has the ability for PIN creation, I would be more than happy if Apple posts the proper and straightforward answer for this instead of saying try 0000 or last 4 digits of credit card number, etc.
I asked the same question of Apple/GS in an iMessage chat session and the answer was "Apple Card doesn't have a PIN."
Using a PIN to authenticate a credit card transaction is unknown in the U.S. but occasionally required outside the U.S. We visited Iceland in Aug 2019. The Apple card in the phone worked perfectly on the touchless terminals used at most places. But I could not use Apple Card at rural N1 gas stations with automated-payment terminals, which required a PIN with a credit card.
Please Apple and Goldie, allow travelers to create a PIN.
If you're ever asked for a PIN notify the cashier that they need to run it as a credit card. There are some terminals that when you swipe the card it will ask for a PIN and you can select cancel and then choose credit.
It's a credit card, normally a PIN is not needed as you might need with a debit card, have you come across a situation where you were asked to enter a PIN?
Went shopping at Costco and couldn’t use my Apple Card. They only take Visa unless I use a mc as a debit. There for I need a pin. How do you create one?
Isn't pretty much every developed country apart from the US using or moving towards the more secure, modern Chip-and-Pin system to secure credit card payments these days? So if not having access to the card's PIN is by design, does that mean the physical Apple credit card is intended only for US domestic use?
Contactless pay terminals aren't a real alternative, as they generally will ask for a PIN if the cash amount for a single transaction is above a certain limit or if the sum of all transactions done without a PIN exceeds a higher limit.
Please Apple, let us have access to that card PIN.
Your posts about success without a PIN are simply unhelpful. This thread is asking Apple to enable PIN capability because it is required in some situations.
I travel extensively in Europe as well as in the developing world.
Most of the time when you present a US credit card for payment in a shop or restaurant the credit card machine (usually a hand held unit) will automatically print out a second receipt for a signature instead of asking for a PIN. This may annoy the cashier or server who now has to go find a pen, but it generally works.
At self service units like gas pumps, you are stuck if you don’t have a chip and pin card of some kind. I usually use my debit card.
It would be great if Apple/Goldman Sachs could provide a PIN for international travel.
Plenty of people have talked about their use of the Apple Card in Europe and Australia. I’ve heard of it being used in Italy, France, Spain, and Germany before. I’ve also heard of it being used in Canada, Mexico, and Brazil.
Confirming the above problem.
While traveling overseas, most POS systems (particularly in 3rd world countries) don't have Tap Pay systems to use Apple Wallet.
As such, a physical credit card is needed to make purchases.
Typically, overseas credit card purchases under a certain dollar amount (e.g. $100) don't trigger a PIN code. However, I recently attempted to use the Apple Card for a $20 credit card purchase in Australia which triggered a PIN code request. The card chip mechanism didn't work so I used the traditional magnetic strip swipe process.
Note: Australia does have a mature Tap Pay system but I just wanted to see if the physical Apple Card would actually work as an experiment. Sadly it didn't.
It would be great if PIN Code creation be added as a feature to enable Apple Card usage while traveling.
H&M store with less than $100 purchase. I did confirm the card was scanned as Credit (used Apple Pay), but it did require PIN...
I used my Apple Pay with my Apple Card at H&M today and no PIN was required.
Apple doesn’t participate here so posting here asking for it does no good. I was just replying to the user that said it can only be used in the US which is not true.
no just would ensure so extra protection.
