Apple Pay is set up on my Apple Watch with svereal cards. IN a store, I can call up a card and it says it's ready, but holding it near the reader does nothing. Have tried several times with different catrds at different stores.

To use Apple Pay on your watch, quickly double-press the side button. Your default card will be displayed. If you have added other cards and wish to use one of those instead, swipe to switch between cards. With your preferred card displayed, hold your watch up to the terminal:


- The watch face should be facing and parallel with the terminal's own screen (you should not be able to see the watch face whilst paying), aligned centrally with the contactless logo on the terminal screen and held closer than 1 inch.

- It should be held in that position for up to a few seconds, until you hear the confirmation beep and haptic pulse.
