How do I Stop being told to setup Apple Pay?
My iPad keeps telling me to set up Apple Pay, which is ridiculous. The idea of pulling out my iPad to make a payment in a shop is laughable.
How do I remove this irritating prompt?
Thanks in advance
Steve
iPad (9th generation)
While perhaps counterintuitive, open the setup prompt from iPad settings - then cancel the setup. This should inhibit further prompts from appearing.
Setting-up ApplePay on your iPad can actually be very useful. While your iPad is not designed to be used in the same manner as your iPhone at point-of-sale terminals (the iPad lacks the specific hardware to support touch-less/proximity payments from the device), ApplePay can be used when accessing online stores - both streamlining and improving the security of the payment transaction.
When using ApplePay, your pre-configured payment/delivery address details are conveyed securely if needed - along with a one-time payment authorisation. ApplePay never reveals your actual Credit Card details to a merchant - and as such, your Credit Card details cannot be stolen or intercepted by a nefarious Bad Actor. The one-time purchase authorisation is just that; details cannot be cloned or repeated without your explicit participation.
In summary, setting-up ApplePay (should you choose to do so) facilitates fast an secure payments when (and if) you choose to use this facility.

If you start to set it up, but don’t actually add and card details, you should see a link to Add Later. Click the link and exit the setup and the prompts to setup will end.
