Introducing Apple Pay. Your iPhone is now your Pliant card

Apple Pay is a secure and easy-to-use mobile payment service that can be used to pay in stores wherever Contactless payments are accepted; just look for the Contactless or Apple Pay symbol.

It enables the use of eligible cards through compatible Apple devices by leveraging existing Near Field Communication (NFC) technology to make mobile payments.

You can also use it to make in-app and E-commerce purchases wherever the Apple Pay logo is displayed.

Sign into the Pliant mobile app, navigate to the card you would like to add to the Wallet, and scroll to the bottom of the page. Next, tap the Add to Apple Pay button and follow the instructions. You can also add the card through Apple Wallet, but we recommend activation through the app. If you require further guidance, you can contact us at +49 30 54453778 0 (in Germany) or 0800 24 04 34 (in Austria).

Mobile data or Wi-Fi connection is not required for making transactions using Apple Pay. You will need mobile data or a Wi-Fi connection to set up a card on the Wallet and to receive transaction notifications.

This message can appear when the activation could not be completed successfully. You can try restarting your phone and adding the card through the Pliant mobile app instead of via Apple Wallet. If the problem persists, you can contact us at +49 30 54453778 0 (in Germany) or 0800 24 04 34 (in Austria).

When you add a card via Apple Wallet, we send a one-time passcode via text or email as an authentication security measure. Adding a card via the Pliant mobile app does not require entering a one-time passcode.

Contact us at +49 30 54453778 0 (in Germany) or 0800 24 04 34 (in Austria).

Sign into the Pliant web or mobile app, navigate to the relevant card in Wallet, and tap “Lock card”. The card may not be used via Apple Pay while it is locked.

Open Apple Wallet, tap on the card, and tap the three points in the top right corner. Next, scroll to the bottom and select "Delete this card". You can also contact support for help with removing cards from Apple Wallet. You can always add back the card using the regular activation process.

If your device is lost or stolen, Apple Pay has security features to make sure other people can't use Apple Pay on your device.

• To use Apple Pay, you'll need to authorize each purchase with Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode.

• On your Apple Watch with Wrist Detection turned on, you'll need to enter your passcode every time you put on your Apple Watch.

• You can mark your device as lost, which will turn off Apple Pay on your device automatically.

• You can also call Pliant customer service to suspend or delete the token associated with your Pliant card(s). If the token is suspended, it can be resumed once the device is found. If it is deleted, you will need to add the card again.

If your card is lost/stolen, you can lock it or terminate it using the Pliant web or mobile app. To lock the card, sign into the Pliant web or mobile app, navigate to the relevant card in Wallet, and tap “Lock card”. To terminate the card, tap the three dots on the right and press “Terminate card”.

You can also ask an admin from your organization to replace your card using the admin app. If the card is replaced rather than terminated, it can automatically be used with Apple Pay without going through the activation process.

Your Apple Watch will then be reset and all cards and settings on it will disappear. However, everything is left as before on your iPhone.

Any card added to your Watch app is treated independently from the card(s) on your other devices.

A card can be added on up to 10 devices.

With iOS15, you can have up to 8 cards on iPhone 7 and iPhone 6S, up to 12 cards on iPhone 8, and up to 16 cards on iPhone XS and later.

You can find them in Apple Wallet and the Transactions page of the Pliant cardholder app.

The checkmark during payment only indicates that the data has been passed from the phone to the terminal, not that the transaction was approved.

Transactions made with your Apple Wallet will be displayed in a push notification and in the Transactions page of the Pliant mobile app, similar to other transactions.
