When you enter billing and contact information for a payment card in Apple Wallet, Apple Pay stores the information and uses it when you make purchases online and within apps.

Update your Apple Pay card number and expiration date
With Apple Pay, your payment card has a unique Device Account Number used to process payments and an expiration date associated with that Device Account Number.
If your card expires or you otherwise get a new card:
- The card number and expiration date linked to the Device Account Number should be updated automatically.
- If your card issuer doesn’t support these updates, you might need to remove the card and add it again.
If your device is lost or stolen
If your device is lost or stolen, Apple Pay has security features to make sure that other people can’t use Apple Pay on your device.
- To use Apple Pay, you need to authorize each purchase with Face ID, Touch ID, or your passcode.
- On your Apple Watch with Wrist Detection on, you need to enter your passcode every time you put on your Apple Watch.
- You can mark your device as lost, which automatically turns off Apple Pay on your device.
- You can also call your card issuer to suspend or remove cards from Apple Pay.
