The Apple Pay Payment Process Explained

We get it – new payment technologies can be confusing! Here’s a quick rundown of what happens behind the scenes when you use Apple Pay:

• Your actual credit or debit card number is never shared with merchants.

• A unique digital token ID securely represents your device account when transacting.

• One-time dynamic security code is generated with each Apple Pay purchase or payment.

• Your card issuer/network (Visa, Mastercard, etc) processes the tokenized transaction just like a regular payment.

• Verizon receives the approved transaction data without receiving your full card details.

Apple Pay means your real card number stays safe on your device only. This adds security and convenience for both customers and merchants.

Apple Pay can’t be used by Android devices or on the My Verizon app for Windows. It also requires an internet connection unlike physical cards. Check with your bank for any transaction limits when using Apple Pay for payments.
