Apple Pay, introduced by Apple, offers a convenient and secure way to make payments through iOS, iPadOS, watchOS devices, and Macs using Safari. It allows users to conduct transactions seamlessly in apps, on websites, and in-person at stores, promoting a contactless interaction that is both quick and secure​​​​.

Setting up Apple Pay is straightforward. Users need to add their credit, debit, or prepaid cards to the Wallet app on their iPhone, which can then be extended to other compatible Apple devices like the Apple Watch, iPad, and Mac. This setup allows for the smooth use of Apple Pay across the user's Apple ecosystem​​.

Apple Pay is increasingly accepted on various online gambling and poker sites, providing a secure and private way to deposit and withdraw funds without sharing card details directly with the gambling sites. Its use is subject to the legal and regulatory environment concerning online gambling in various jurisdictions​​.

Apple Pay is not accepted as widely as other payment methods and not in all regions, but is currently accepted in the following online poker rooms:

Apple Pay is designed with enhanced security features. It does not store actual card numbers on the device or on Apple servers, and payments require Face ID, Touch ID, or a passcode, ensuring that transactions are protected against unauthorised access. Additionally, transaction details are not kept in a way that can be tied back to the user, further protecting personal information​​​​.

While Apple Pay is widely available, its functionality, especially in services like Apple Pay Later, is limited to certain regions like the United States. The availability of Apple Pay for use in online gambling also varies by the gambling laws and financial regulations of each country​​.
