We will assume that you know what Apple Pay is and that you are happy with the availability of the service in the UAE, although its benefit will be limited if you do not live in the UAE, but this bodes well and that it is coming to more countries in the Arab region, but the question here is why is the enthusiasm and why he used the feature Apple Pay, the truth is this question I asked myself, because the Apple Pay feature is nothing but an alternative to credit cards, meaning that if you are at the store you either take out the Visa card or take out your phone to pay and he in turn uses the Visa card, then why the trouble? Why put my Visa card in an Apple wallet and pay using the iPhone?


The reason is one word "safety".

Yes, this is the biggest reason for me to use the Apple payment feature, it has happened more than once with me, especially at airports and in some countries, my card numbers were stolen and used by strangers, and after communicating with the bank the problem is solved, but the trouble and the card stops and you feel that any seller It is possible that your card is stolen and used by something that makes you adopt the use of Apple's payment feature. When you make a purchase, Apple Pay uses a unique number for each device and a unique code for the purchase. Therefore, your card number is never stored on your device or on Apple's servers, and when you make a payment, Apple never shares your card numbers with the seller.

The other reason is "ease"

Yes, many of us have more than one card, and there is no doubt that searching for the card and remembering the password for each card is annoying, and here comes the advantage of Apple's payment service, take out your phone that you do not leave from your hands all day long and pay with any card with the utmost ease.
