If your husband's name is showing up when you use Apple Pay even though the credit card is linked to your name and you are logged in to your own Apple ID on your iPhone, there might be a couple of reasons for this issue. Here are a few steps you can take to address it:
- Double-check your Apple ID settings to make sure that your personal information, including your name, is correctly entered. Sometimes, discrepancies in your Apple ID information can lead to incorrect names being displayed during transactions.
- Go to the "Wallet & Apple Pay" section in your iPhone settings. Confirm that your card is correctly set up with your name as the primary account holder. If necessary, you might want to remove the card and re-add it, making sure that all the information is accurate.
- If you and your husband share payment methods through Family Sharing, it's possible that his name is appearing due to settings in the Family Sharing setup. You can review these settings to ensure that your personal payment methods are not being shared or associated with his account.
Remember that it's important to protect your personal and financial information. Always verify any changes you make and be cautious about sharing personal data.
