Frequently Asked Questions Apple Pay

Apple Pay is a safe, fast, and easy way to pay. Simply add your ICS credit card to your Apple Wallet and pay wherever you see the Apple Pay or contactless payment symbol. You won’t need your physical credit card. Instead, you’ll pay with your iPhone or Apple Watch.

Have you linked your ABN AMRO Credit Card to your iPhone or Apple Watch in the ABN AMRO Creditcard app? Then you can use it immediately for contactless payments.

No need to enter extra payment details anymore.
