Apple Pay on the Web - confirm on iPhone

I've been trying to use Apple Pay on my Mac with the cards on my iPhone. Bluetooth is on for both devices and signed in to the same account and next to each other, but my Mac doesn't have an option to pay with iPhone's cards?

I’m not sure how to do what you want to do or if it’s possible. The way I do it is my Apple Pay cards are on the device I use to pay. For example, I can have certain cards on my iPhone, but they may or may not be on my MacBook Air. I don’t know how to pay with Apple Pay cards from a different device.


If you want to use Apple Pay on your Mac, I would add the card to your Mac. At least this is the only way I know how to do this. It’s under System Settings, then select Wallet & Apple Pay on the left side. You should be able to add cards from there. I believe when I initially set up my Mac, it asked what cards I want to add from my account but you can just click Add Card and it will show you a list of the cards you have on iCloud. On mine all are selected by default. Unselect whatever cards you don’t want to add and then press next. Have the physical card ready because I believe it asks for the CVC number on the back.

If there’s another way to do this, please someone let me know, but I’m not aware of it

Pay with Apple Pay in Safari on Mac

In Safari on your Mac, use Apple Pay at checkout. Complete the purchase on your Mac (Touch ID is required), iPhone, or Apple Watch.

support.apple.com

Look for Apple Pay when you check out, then complete your purchase using your Mac with Touch ID, iPhone (iOS 10 or later), or Apple Watch (watchOS 3 or later). If you complete your purchase using iPhone or Apple Watch, you must be signed in with the same Apple ID as on your Mac.

I remember using the iPhone's cards working once on the same computer, but it stopped working recently

I guess this makes sense for Macs without Touch ID.

The only thing I can think of would be to restart both the Mac and iPhone. Also, check to see maybe if one has a VPN turned on. Sometimes that can do crazy things.
