Set up Apple Pay on iPad
Set up Apple Pay to make secure payments in apps and on websites that support Apple Pay. In Messages, use Apple Cash to send and receive money from friends and family and to make purchases from participating businesses.
Add a credit or debit card
To add Apple Card, see Set up and use Apple Card on iPad (U.S. only). For other debit and credit cards, do the following:
Go to Settings
> Wallet & Apple Pay, then tap Add Card. You may be asked to sign in with your Apple ID.
Do one of the following:
Add a new card: Tap Debit or Credit Card, tap Continue, then position your card so that it appears in the frame, or enter the card details manually.
Add your previous cards: Tap Previous Cards, then choose any of cards you previously used. These cards may include the card associated with your Apple ID, cards you use with Apple Pay on your other devices, cards you added to AutoFill, or cards that you removed. Tap Continue, authenticate with Touch ID or Face ID, then enter the CVV number of each card.
Alternatively, you may be able to add your card from the app of the bank or card issuer.
The card issuer determines whether your card is eligible for Apple Pay, and may ask you for additional information to complete the verification process.

Remove your cards from Apple Pay if your iPad is lost or stolen
If you enabled Find My, you can use it to help locate and secure your iPad.
To remove your cards from Apple Pay, do any of the following:
On a Mac or PC: Sign in to your Apple ID account. In the Devices section, click the lost iPad. In the Wallet & Apple Pay section, click Remove Items.
On another iPhone or iPad: Go to Settings
> [your name], tap the lost iPad, then tap Remove Items (below Wallet & Apple Pay).
Call the issuers of your cards.
If you remove cards, you can add them again later.
If you sign out of iCloud in Settings > [your name], all your credit and debit cards for Apple Pay are removed from iPad. You can add the cards again the next time you sign in.
Note: The availability of Apple Pay and its features varies by country or region. See the Apple Support article Countries and regions that support Apple Pay.
