Apple Pay™ is a convenient new way to pay at hundreds of thousands of merchants and mobile apps using your BB Americas Bank Visa® Cards and your iPhone, Apple Watch, iPad, Or Mac. Reaching for your wallet will become a thing of the past!

Yes. Apple Pay™ is even more secure than using a traditional card. Instead of using your actual debit card number, Apple Pay™ assigns, encrypts and stores a unique device account number on a dedicated chip on your device. When you make a purchase, that device account number is used to process your payment. Your actual card number is never shared with merchants or transmitted with payment, helping reduce the potential for fraud.

To use Apple Pay™ in stores you must have an iPhone, Apple Watch, iPad, or Mac.
You can use your cards on some Mac models, while signed in to iCloud. On Apple Watch Series 3 and later, and iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus and later, you can add up to 12 cards on a device. On earlier models, you can add up to 8 cards on a device.

Not all merchants have adopted this technology. Please continue to carry your actual card to use where Apple Pay™ is not accepted. Most merchants will display the contactless payment and/or Apple Pay™ symbol to let you know they accept contactless payments.

At this time, Apple Pay™ is only available in collaboration with certain U.S. financial institutions. The availability of Apple Pay™ outside the U.S. is determined by Apple.

Before making a payment with your Apple device you will need to follow a few simple steps to enroll in Apple Pay™ and add your Credit or Debit Card.

• Go to Wallet and tap .
• Follow the steps to add a new card. If you're asked to add the card that you use with iTunes, cards on other devices, or cards that you’ve recently removed, choose them, then enter the card security codes.
• Tap Next. Your bank or card issuer will verify your information and decide if you can use your card with Apple Pay™. If more information is needed to verify your card, BB Americas Bank will ask you for it. When you have the information, go back to Wallet and tap your card.
• After BB Americas Bank successfully verifies your card, you will able to start using Apple Pay™.

If your debit card is not already recognized as the default card, do the following:

• Select the Settings icon on your compatible Apple device (Apple Watch users open the Apple Watch app).
• Select Default Card.
• Select the Institution for the Card you would like to use as your default card. If successful, a checkmark will appear next to that card.

First, make sure that the merchant accepts Apple Pay™. Look for these contactless payment and/or Apple Pay™ symbols at checkout.

When making purchases using the iPhone at a merchant equipped with a contactless payment terminal, simply hold your device over the terminal and accept the charge with your fingerprint or passcode when prompted. A subtle vibration and beep will let you know your purchase was successful.

First, make sure that the merchant accepts Apple Pay. Look for these contactless payment and/or Apple Pay symbols at checkout.

Once you confirm that the merchant accepts Apple Pay, unlock your Apple Watch if needed by entering your four digit PIN. Double tap the small button on the side of the Apple Watch to display your debit card. To make a payment, hold the Apple Watch a few centimeters away from the contactless payment terminal with the display facing towards the reader. A gentle vibration and beep will let you know your purchase was successful.

It depends on the merchant. In some cases you may need to sign a receipt or enter your PIN. If asked to verify the last four digits of your debit card number when making a purchase, provide the last four digits of the device account number. The device account number can be found by selecting the Settings icon on your compatible Apple device (Apple Watch users launch the Apple Watch app). Then scroll down to Apple Pay™, select the card and scroll down to view the Device Account Number.

You can use Apple Pay™ to make payments in stores and within mobile apps that display the contactless payments and/or Apple Pay™ symbols at checkout.

All transactions completed with Apple Pay™ will appear on your statement as a typical point-of-sale transaction.

The return process varies by merchant. You may need to present a receipt from the merchant to return the item. To complete the return, hold your iPhone or Apple Watch over the contactless payment terminal and wait for the slight vibration of the device to confirm the refund has been processed. You must use the same Apple Pay™ enabled device you used to purchase the item to process the return.

When your enrolled card in Apple Pay™ expires, or is replaced due to loss, theft or fraud, you will need to add it to Apple Pay™ as if it were new – either using the device camera or by manually adding the information. You must first delete your old card from Apple Pay™.

If you misplace your Apple Pay™ device, you can use the Find My iPhone app to temporarily suspend the device account number. If you believe that card is lost or stolen, you should contact BB Americas Bank Customer Service.
If you replace or update your Apple device, your card will not be transferred automatically. You will need to set up Apple Pay™ again and add your card to the new device.

When selling or giving away your Apple device you should make sure you delete all digital accounts in Apple Pay™. Alternatively, you may reset your phone to factory settings which will also remove all digital accounts.
