Apple Pay is a payment tool given to Apple product users. Payments can be done online, in applications and in stores. When making a purchase, Apple Pay uses a number for the specific device and a unique transaction code. This way, your card number is never stored on your Apple device or Apple servers and, when the payment is done, card numbers are never disclosed by Apple to merchants.
