Issues sending money on Apple Pay

..FlorieNYC:

There could be a variety of ways or reasons, for the Apple Pay to not send money.

The basis of this goes into the premise of Apple Pay itself and rules behind them.

• Send and receive money with Apple Cash - Apple Support

The use of Apple Cash is different; and default would first be to use Apple Pay.

Second to that (for business, commercial) would be Debit. These may be used

for personal money; understand, that it could be like 'Cash' without recourse.

[..Certain secure steps should be taken by both parties, to assure to minimize

chances of fraud; or third-party spoofing, etc. The risk ultimately falls privately..]

"When you send money in the Messages app using Apple Pay, your Apple Cash

card is used to pay first by default. If you want to use a debit card instead, you

can send money directly from your debit card."

• How to avoid scams when using Apple Pay to send and receive money - Apple Support

"When you send or receive money with Apple Pay, it’s just like any other private transaction

between two people. And just like with other types of payments, there are some precautions

you can take to avoid scams."

(While I've not used these payment devices, nor am I suggesting my presence here

is any more than a Volunteer participant in Apple Communities; I'm a 'peer-to-peer'

helper. This means in this regard, I'm alot like you or anyone, repeating what's said..)

Could be the details on either end of such a proposed transaction may have flown

'flags' to discourage the idea between any two parties; unless/until details may be

figured out.. And any valid settings changed, you'd need to talk to the other person.
