How to Use Apple Wallet on iPhone

Do you actively use bank and bonus cards and have already collected a large collection? Perhaps you would like to place them in a separate "storage". We are happy to inform you: such an opportunity exists! And this is the Wallet application, which is available on any iPhone. In our review, we will tell you how to work with this program.

What is Wallet on iPhone: application features

What is the essence of this software? Using Apple Wallet, you can collect all the cards in one place - on your smartphone. They will be available in electronic form, always at hand. With the "wallet" from Apple, you can use payment cards, as well as loyalty cards of many stores, without having them at hand. In addition, the virtual wallet contains other information: transactions made on the card, accumulated bonus points and even the departure and arrival times of paid transport. For example, details of an upcoming flight. By loading a bonus card of a store or cafe into Wallet, you will always be aware of new promotions or personal offers.

What exactly can be loaded into Apple Wallet


The following can be linked to the Apple electronic cardholder:

  • bank cards (debit and credit);

  • cards for paying for travel on public transport;

  • bonus and discount cards for stores, restaurants and other establishments;

  • tickets and boarding passes for air and rail transport;

  • confirmation of a hotel reservation;

  • keys for electronic door locks, for cars.

  • The country you live in also matters. For example, Americans can even upload student cards and driver's licenses to Apple Wallet. In addition, orders you made through apps or store websites are visible here.

    Some cards cannot be uploaded to Wallet (if they are not supported). It is better to ask the consultant in advance whether this particular store has this option. Or look for an ad near the checkout - retail outlets try to indicate such a service, some even send SMS.

    How to add a bank card to Wallet on iPhone

    The sequence of actions is as follows:

    • Go to Wallet on your iPhone and tap the "Add" button (the plus icon at the top right).

    • Select "Debit Card" or "Credit Card".

    • Tap "Continue".

    When you load the card into Wallet on your iPhone, you can also use it on other devices with your Apple account: iPad, Mac, Apple Watch and Apple Vision Pro.

    Sometimes an error may occur when loading the card into the e-wallet. There are two reasons for this: either the bank does not cooperate with Apple Pay, or your version of iOS is outdated.
