Places That Accept Apple Pay

We reached out to Apple customer support for information about which companies take Apple Pay. A representative explained that Apple does not offer a comprehensive list to the public since new companies are setting up mobile payment capabilities every day. To compile the list below, we contacted the companies directly and viewed their payment policies online (where available) to confirm that they accept Apple Pay.

Note that the availability of mobile payment options may vary by location, particularly if the business is franchised. You may want to contact your nearest location to confirm that it accepts Apple Pay. Hardware issues can also prevent you from using Apple Pay; it’s a good idea to keep a second payment method on hand in case you have trouble completing your payment.
