You may already use Apple Pay with your iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch. However, it\u2019s also a great fit for your Mac.<\/p>\n

But let\u2019s back up. In case you\u2019re not familiar with Apple Pay, it\u2019s the tech giant\u2019s mobile payment and digital wallet service\/app that lets you make payments in person, in apps, or on the web. You can use it to buy stuff, subscribe to Apple Music, upgrade your iCloud store\u2014even purchase all your favorite gear at MacSales.com<\/a>! <\/span><\/p>\n

Apple Pay digitizes and can replace a credit or debit card chip and PIN transaction at a contactless-capable point-of-sale terminal. It doesn\u2019t require Apple Pay-specific contactless payment terminals; it works with any merchant that accepts contactless payments.<\/p>\n

You can use Apple Pay in Safari on your Mac to shop easily and securely. However, first you need to set up your credit or debit card on the desktop or laptop you\u2019ll use to complete your purchase:<\/p>\n

In the Safari app on your Mac, at checkout, click Apple Pay. You can change the credit card, shipping address, or contact information before completing your purchase.<\/p>\n

If your Mac supports Touch ID, you can authenticate a purchase with it. However, only one user account on your Mac can use Touch ID on the Mac to complete purchases with Apple Pay. Other user accounts must use iPhone or Apple Watch.<\/p>\n

You can use autofill credit cards, contacts, and passwords in Safari on your Mac. <\/span><\/p>\n

To add or remove a stored credit card, in the Safari app, choose Safari > Preferences, then click AutoFill. Select \u201cCredit cards,\u201d then click Edit.<\/p>\n

To fill in your credit card info, launch Safari, click in a credit card field when making a purchase. Choose from a list of your stored credit cards.
\nIf your Mac has Touch ID, you can use it to fill in the stored information for the selected credit card. Note that, for security, Safari doesn\u2019t store the credit card security code. You\u2019ll have to enter it manually each time you use the card on a website. Yes, that\u2019s a bit inconvenient, but it\u2019s worth it for the protection.<\/p>\n

To fill in info from the Contacts app, open Safari and start typing any name from your contacts to autofill the details. If a contact has more than one address, email, phone, or other info, you can choose from the home, work, or custom address you\u2019ve already entered in their contact card. If you don\u2019t want Safari to autofill information, just keep on typing.<\/p>\n

To fill in your user name and password, open Safari and do one of the following:<\/p>\n
