Hey Ivette1173,


We understand you're having an issue using Apple Pay over cellular. We'd be happy to help out.


You don't need Wi-Fi to use this feature, so it's very likely that what's occurring is related to an issue with your cellular data connection when you're attempting to use it.


For more info on using Apple Pay, check out: How to use Apple Pay


If you're having issues with your cellular data connection, also check out: If you see No Service or Searching on your iPhone or iPad


We hope this information helps you get on a path to resolution.


Take care!
