Apple Pay and Lydia: General Information

Apple Pay lets you spend money from your Lydia account in any store or website using your mobile phone.

Paying contactless in-store 🛍️

Apple Pay uses Apple devices' integrated NFC (Near Field Communication) chips to perform contactless payments in every store equipped with traditional card terminals. To pay contactless, you only need to:

1. Approach your device (iPhone or Apple Watch) from the payment terminal (the NFC chip automatically detects it)
2. Activate Touch ID or Face ID to authorise the contactless payment. On Apple Watches, perform two clicks on the side button.
3. That's it, your purchase is paid for !

Apple Pay payments are far more secured than contactless credit card payments. Hence, there is no amount limit with contactless mobile payment.
