How exactly did you incur your loss?


ApplePay is a mechanism, but not an actual

payment method.


Was it a fraudulent charge to a credit card you have installed in wallet ?


As we can only presume that since the amount was in UAE Dirham, that this was a credit card transaction.


Unfortunately, ApplePay doesn’t prevent legacy credit cards from being compromised the “old fashioned” way.


Any fraudulent transactions should be reported to your card issuer.


Any protection you might be afforded is per the terms of your cardholder agreement and/or local laws.

Your 16-digit credit card number can be used in any country. That type fraud was occurring LONG before ApplePay came on-scene.


And ALL credit card transactions are “digital” transactions so that attempt at avoiding a “tasker” by your issuer doesn’t really make much sense.


Your card issuer can clearly tell you if the transaction originated from an ApplePay device and if so, from which one.


If that device is not your device, it’s STILL a device which your issuer verified as legitimate and it’s still a FRAUDULENT transaction.


I’m not familiar w/ Emirati banking and credit regulations, but in many regions the cardholder is not responsible for fraudulent transactions if reported to the issuer in a timely manner.


I’d suspect that Emirati regulations are quite similar.
