Make Payments with NFC

If you have installed a payment app (such as Wallet) on your phone and enabled the payment service, you can make payments with NFC.

  1. Open NFC and go to NFC, then select Default app , such as Wallet.

  2. Enable NFC payments in the payment app. Using Wallet as an example, go to Wallet > Cards > add Bank cards/Transportation cards.

  3. Hold the NFC sensor (located near the rear camera) of your phone against a POS terminal to bring up the payment screen automatically. Complete the payment with a password or fingerprint.

    This feature may vary by product. There may be situations where payment is completed directly after approaching a POS terminal.
