Apple Pay is such a useful service, but you don’t need to link it to your bank account or credit card and can use it with prepaid cards if you want, which is particularly useful when travelling or if you want your kids to have emergency options etc.

Apple Pay nowadays,  supports prepaid cards provided by some of the big names, Visa, Mastercard, American Express (the latter being the least well-supported).

Apple also supports pre-paid cards from the likes of UK providers, Revolut, N26, Starling Bank, iCard and popular prepaid cards from U.S providers such as some of the above and also Simple, Movo, Fifth Third Access 360, Akimbo and Wells Fargo.

Support for prepaid cards in the US and U.K. extends to other countries.

A growing number of prepaid card providers are climbing aboard the Apple Pay machine as the service continues to grow and customers demand support.

I wouln’t want to give apple payment data too, they still have much to many digital information from their users.

This ends in incredible dependency!

Not everything thats easy is good for consumers in the long run …
