    Apple Pay does not change which cards a merchant accepts.

    JaxFLBear certainly answered your question correctly above.

     

    But because of the way you asked your question ...

    Yes, Apple Pay still works.  You can place your iPhone (or Apple Watch) by the Apple Pay scanner, and have your card read.  But you will be told "Card rejected" or something similar.
