Does Amazon Accept Apple Pay?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

These systems allow users to combine multiple payment methods into one streamlined system, eliminating the need to carry multiple cards and allowing contactless purchases using a smartphone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Unfortunately, these services are closed systems and only work with supported vendors and banks. As of 2022, Amazon doesn\u2019t support Apple Pay or accept it as a direct payment method during checkout.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Amazon features millions <\/em>of items for sale, from home goods and furnishings to electronics and hardware \u2014 there is no limit to what a person can find.
