Apple Pay Not Working in Big Sur

Since Updating to Big Sur, Apple Pay no longer works on my iMac. When I click the Apple Pay button in Safari, I get a message that my iPhone cannot be found. It is right next to the iMac, bluetooth is turned on, and everything in wallet is set up. It was working fine before the Big Sur update, so not sure where to go from here, or if it is related to Big Sur.

iMac 27″, macOS 11.0

Open Startup Security Utility

  1. Turn on your Mac, then press and hold Command (⌘)-R immediately after you see the Apple logo. Your Mac starts up from macOS Recovery.
  2. When you're asked to select a user you know the password for, select the user, click Next, then enter their administrator password. 
  3. When you see the macOS utilities window, choose Utilities > Startup Security Utility from the menu bar.
  4. When you're asked to authenticate, click Enter macOS Password, then choose an administrator account and enter its password.

I have the same issue.. Tried using your exact setting in Startup Security Utility, but it did not work for me. I have had a ticket open with Apple for over a month and still not resolved. I heard it's a problem with computer that have a T-2 chip, like your iMac and my MBPro.. Thanks for your help...

I too had the same issue. The reason for me was due to the fact that I had earlier disabled CSRUTIL during one of the software installations and not enabled it back. Turning it back on helped.

To do this, restart the machine, when the Apple logo appears, press CMD-R to get to Recovery Mode, launch Terminal from Utilities menu, and type the command CSRUTIL enable.
