Last 4 of account number

I need the whole account number though not just last 4 and it’s been weirdly difficult to find that on my own account. Does anyone know where to find whole Apple Card account number??

iPhone X

Open the Wallet app. Tap on your Apple Card in the wallet. Tap on the 3 dots at the top right (above the image of your card). Then finally tap on Card Information. The following window will have all the information that you seek for your Apple Card. Hope this helps.

The device account number is a special encrypted number that is used specifically for transactions with the iPhone, so that merchants that you pay with the iPhone (device) do not get the actual account number for the card. The same thing happens with your other credit cards. The last 4 digits of my debit card are one thing, however the last 4 digits of my debit card listing for device account number are different. This is a security move to prevent anyone that may intercept a transaction, or see extract something from a terminal from using that information to make any charges. That number will only work from the specific device, not from anything else. You know that you can make charges over the phone with a credit card number. If someone had gotten the device account number and tried to use it over the phone, it wouldn't work, because that is not really the actual account number. Again, it only works on that specific iPhone, and nothing else.


I hope that helps you understand the explanation that Lawrence gave as well

Yes the Goldman Sachs Apple Card. It shows whole card number yes, but as I have said multiple times. It won’t show your WHOLE ACCOUNT NUMBER, not card number, not physical number, not the other details it shows at the 3 dot menu, THE ACCOUNT NUMBER. Even apples link to “finding your account number” leads you to saying what u are telling me to do then says, “look at your last 4 digits of account number. So before you tell me to go to wallet and hit the 3 dots on my Apple Card again, know that it only shows last 4 of account number in the sensitive card info area in the wallet app. I need the whole number.

To make a payment or transfer a debt on certain/ or other platforms you need the credit card account number. While that info may be true, the owner of the Apple Card should be able to see they own number without having to explain why or digging through forums. So why do I only see my 4 last numbers of the account? But most importantly, HOW DO I ACCESS THE WHOLE NUMBER?

If you are talking about the Apple Card issued by Goldman Sachs then it will show you the entire card information as I had stated in my response above. All other cards that you may have added for use with Apple Pay will only show the device number and only the last 4. So, are you talking about the Goldman Sachs issued Apple Card or are you talking about a card that you added for Apple Pay?

Because Apple doesn’t want you to have that information. And I can’t think of any use for it; the card number that is displayed in full is all you need for online purchases, and it even works for face-to-face where the card cannot be scanned for any reason (I actually used this recently when the merchant’s terminal was down). You will notice that full card numbers and online account numbers are not displayed for any cards in the wallet app. And that the online account numbers are always different from the the actual card number.
