Using Apple Cash you can as long as they have Apple Cash also. This is done through Messages. Make sure you know the person you are sending money to as this is a person to person transaction. You do not dispute those payments and if you want your money back, you would need to ask them for it back.

Send and receive money with Apple Cash - Apple Support


Apple Pay is just the platform for purchases with your Credit/Debit card that is done without sending the retailer you actual card numbers, and is much more secure. The payment method is still the Credit or Debit card that you are using, it is just being sent securely. Since you are not able to send money to a person using your Debit/Credit card, you can not do it with the Apple Pay platform either.

So if I’m correct, I could purchase the Apple gift card. You send me the information and that information I could forward it to my girlfriend. Is it safe? I know I have to purchase it with a debit card that I have on file with Apple already. What do you advise, wait a few hours and purchase it in store or continue and purchase it here and if I do purchase it here how would she get the information? Can I take a picture of the actual transaction with the numbers that she’s going to need?
