Before you start

Your store must meet Apple's requirements to enable Apple Pay:

  • Use Shopify Payments as your Payment Processor

  • Enable SSL on your store domain (learn more here)

  • Comply with Apple's Acceptable Use Guidelines (view guidelines here)

  • Business location: Your business must be located in the United States, Canada, Australia, or New Zealand

How to enable Apple Pay in Shopify

Step 1: Navigate to payment settings

  1. In your Shopify admin, go to Settings > Payments.

Step 2: Enable Apple Pay

  1. Click Manage in the section for your credit card payment provider.

  2. In the Wallets section, select Apple Pay.

  3. Click Save.

Once enabled, customers can use Apple Pay to check out on your store and manage their subscriptions.

Supported payment methods

Customers can only use Mastercard or Visa credit cards when paying for subscriptions with Apple Pay. Other card types—including American Express, Discover, and Diners Club—are not supported for subscription payments through Apple Pay.

If customers want to use unsupported card types, they'll need to enter their card information directly at checkout instead of using Apple Pay.
