    Pretty much any Global payments, WorldPay or Elavon terminal (Bank issued and configured, not ones that retailers have integrated into their systems) will support Apple Pay transactions of atleast £500. I think Global payments supports up to £2000 (which is the same as the Apple Store).

    No, the machine doesn't offer contactless when the amount is more than £30

    Anyone paid over £30 in Sainsbury's? They say on Twitter they do but the last time I tried a couple of months ago it didn't. Not spent that much there since but have noticed receipt says device verified.

    Also, Ikea take payments over £30.

    What is the security if someone steals your iPhone and uses it for an Apple Pay?

    I don't use Apple Pay but have done in the past occasionally and I'm pretty sure that you need to confirm the transaction with your fingerprint each time.

    Twice in the last fortnight I've been stuck behind someone on the exit gate at Cannon Street Station frantically retrying their phone. In the grand scheme of things it's only a few seconds each time but I certainly don't get the argument that it's easier to use a mobile rather than a card.
    I hate verisimilitude.

    Cant say for iPhone but on Android you need to have security on the phone eg a pin to unlock it, maybe the fingerprint is the alternative.

    That's a shame. It does at Lidl

    You'd need a registered fingerprint and/or know the phone's passcode.

    Without either of those you'd be unable to use Apple Pay.
    It's not your credit score that counts, it's your credit history. Any replies are my own personal opinion and not a representation of my employer.

    They just need to learn how to pre-authorise it then there will be no problem.
