I bought an Apple Watch Series 9, but the NFC isn’t working, so I can’t use it for card payments, and I’m not sure why

Apple Watch Series 9, watchOS 10

Transaction terminals at merchants, merchants internet, issues at the bank, to name a few.


Have you contacted Apple Support? They may be able to do remote diagnostics on the watch and check the NFC module. Apple Support does remote diagnostics on iPhones.


If you’re in the US please call 1-800-MY-APPLE or outside the US, consult the support article below.

If the NFC module is defective, it should be coved under warranty. You Apple Watch is less than a year old.
