Using Apple Account Balance for payments on websites that support Apple Pay

if I purchase an Apple Gift Card and add it to my App Store account, can I use the balance to pay with Apple Pay on other websites or brands, or do I need to have Apple Cash?

No. Apple gift cards can only be used in Apple Stores or Apple's online platform. The Apple Account balance cannot be selected in Apple Pay as a payment method on 3rd party websites.


You can add supported credit or debit cards to the Apple Wallet app to use with Apple Pay, on websites and stores. It does not absolutely need to be Apple Cash.
