How to shop for Black Friday items on Amazon using Apple Pay


Retailers have turned what used to be a chaotic single day of in-store savings into an entire season of convenient deals shopping. And that season is officially upon us.

It's no secret that Amazon is one of the go-to retailers for Black Friday savings, largely due to convenience. Beyond the two-day shipping benefit, avid shoppers keeping their eyes on Amazon's exclusive Black Friday deals can enjoy a breezy shopping experience (while they secure major deals) from Nov. 17 to Nov. 27 thanks to Amazon's flexible payment options. Customers are no longer limited to debit and/or credit cards or Amazon gift cards; if you're an Apple loyalist, you can also use Apple Pay to make purchases on Amazon. (Though, not all vendors accept Apple Pay.)

Apple Pay is compatible with most — but not all — vendors on Amazon, making it even easier to secure deals in just a few taps. You can use it in place of a traditional card payment whenever possible by following the steps below.

Step 5: Once Apple Pay's payment authenticator pops up on your screen, use your Face ID or Touch ID to authenticate the purchase.

Though we are often skeptical of third-party vendors on Amazon, they may offer some Black Friday deals that are too good to pass up. If you choose to make a purchase from a third-party vendor and it doesn't accept Apple Pay, you can work around it by using your Apple Card instead. The process is fairly straightforward.

Step 1: Make sure you add your Apple Card to the Wallet app on your iPhone by clicking on the + symbol.

Step 2: Now, go to the Amazon app.

Step 3: You'll find four clickable options at the bottom of the home screen. Start the process by clicking on the Account icon which is right next to the homepage icon.

Step 4: A new app page will appear. Tap on Your Account to access account details.

Step 5: Scroll down on the page until you see the Payments section and click on Your Payments.

Step 6: Another page with all your linked cards and bank accounts will appear on the app. Go to the Wallet tab and press +Add.

Step 7: Click on Add a credit or debit card and input your Apple card details.

Step 8: Finally, click on Add and continue to finish the process. Now, you can use your Apple Card to make purchases on Amazon.
