Not sure if it's been mentioned in here yet, but I paid for a coffee machine in John Lewis at the weekend with Apple Pay and it was over £30.

Any news on any UK loyalty cards supporting contactless with iOS 12? Would be great if any retailers adopted those new possibilities.

Then again, not even all are available in Wallet: I hate having to scramble for the M&S app to get to my Sparks card when they could just integrate it into the Wallet.

Alternatively you could add Clubcard to Apple Wallet/use the Tesco Clubcard app.
I've tried that and never had it accepted yet by any scanner. Have you had it working?

[UPDATE] It has now been added natively which is the first times that has worked. I'll give it a go next time I'm in store.

Thanks for the tip!

It’s never worked for me in the past either.

I need to have a look if it’s been improved as well.

I believe the older scanners had problems reading from a phone screen and are being updated. I have also had problems in the past but not recently.

We e switched main shopping stores to Sainsbury’s so it’ll be a while before we are back at Tesco. Will feed back when we next go in though if it has worked.

Apple Pay works in Tesco without any issues. I use it all the time.

Any sign of Apple Pay Cash in the UK? Surprised it's taking quite so long to launch. Thought it might have come with iOS 12. They do like to make us wait...

Well I noticed mention of it in the newly released shortcuts app but I think this is just accidental code that’s been leftover from the US app. Trying to run a shortcut with one of these results in an error. I was hoping to see mention of it at the latest keynote so I haven’t got high hopes for it reaching us any time soon.

So you’ve used ApplePay in Tesco for purchases >£30 then?

Don’t remember when I used to pay over £30 but the other day I went to Jamie Oliver’s restaurant and paid with Apple Pay. That was definitely over £30.

I didn’t know Jamie Oliver’s restaurants were part of Tesco...

I tried a couple of weeks ago and it didn't work.

Doesn’t work for me either, it’s still basic contactless rules in Tesco.

Hey guys quick question: Does the Amex UK app support in-app provisioning of Amex cards directly into Wallet? I'm just asking as the App Store page shows Wallet support and I'm not sure what it's there for.

Even that doesn’t work on their self service tills - type in your sparks number on the checkout? Pah!
