I need the FULL / COMPLETE Apple Pay Device Number for a specific card in my Apple Wallet, not just the last 4 digits. How can I view this?

• There are various instances where different people need their FULL Apple Pay device number for a card in the Apple Wallet.


• Mine is that OMNY (the tap-to-pay public transportation fare processing system and entity used in NYC) seems to have blocked one of my cards and I can’t use it via Express Transit or Apple Pay (tap).


• I need the FULL and COMPLETE Apple Pay device for this card so that I can input it onto the OMNY website and confirm if it is blocked or not.


• I CANNOT use just the last 4 digits nor can I tap my phone onto the website itself (for obvious reasons).


• How can I obtain this?

No. There should be no instance where this is required. There is nowhere to see this, and neither the users nor merchants can see this full number. So there is no where you would need to use it, nor anywhere for anyone to see it and compare it.

You cannot need to do this, as its not possible to obtain. The NYC transit website cannot be asking for this, and it if it is, then it has no idea how Apple Pay works.


• I CANNOT use just the last 4 digits nor can I tap my phone onto the website itself (for obvious reasons).

You cannot. Only the last 4 numbers are available and only those 4 numbers can ever be seen by any merchant. The NYC Transit system has no access to the full number either, so there's no reason to ask for it, since they would not be able to compare it to anything even if you did provide that.


Whatever they are asking for, the full device number is not it.


Again, there is no way to get this, and no way for anybody to see this full number anywhere not even the merchants that may be asking for it.
