Does anyone know how to use apple pay? Do I just put the phone on the reader and press the home button? I tried using it and it won't work. My mom loaded in 2 of her credit cards on my phone for me to use while I'm back overseas and I just tried using it at the airport. It just won't work. :(

From the lockscreen you double tap the home button and then hold the phone over the reader. If you're inside the wallet app you place your finger on the home button and then hold it over the reader.

Go in to wallet and see if the cards have been authorised and good to go. If they are it should just be a case of presenting your phone to the wireless pay point and resting your finger on the scanner to authorise.

If you double click on the home button from the lock screen it should bring your cards up ready to use.

Also just holding the phone near the reader wakes up Apple Pay and then you just authenticate with your fingerprint.

She got an email saying the card was ready to use but also another email from citibank to check the internal email. She doesn't have the password for that
