Get a refund for purchases made with credit or debit cards using Apple Pay
To return and get a refund for something you've bought using Apple Pay, you may need to provide some additional information.
The policies for processing a refund can vary depending on the merchant. You can generally return purchases made using Apple Pay by providing the receipt. Some merchants might ask for more information, such as the last four digits of the Apple Pay card number used for your payment method. When the merchant processes your refund, it goes back to your payment card automatically, but it might take several days to appear on your card statement.
Find your Apple Pay card number
Your physical card number and your Apple Pay card number are different. To process refunds for purchases made using Apple Pay, the merchant might use the Apple Pay card number of your payment card in Wallet, instead of the debit or credit card number from your physical card. Some merchants might not require your Apple Pay or physical card numbers.
