Email arrived in my inbox today announcing American Express is now available via Apple Pay.

Use Apple Pay anywhere that already welcomes American Express contactless payments.

  • Good way to get shops not accepting amex paid for using paywave nice.

    • It sounds like you can only use Amex Apple Pay at stores that already accept the Amex card via Paywave, sadly.

      • Yes that’s how I have interpreted it as well.

        • Yes, that's correct. Also PayWave is a Visa brand. Amex calls their contactless tech Expresspay. Or just call it contactless or tap&go.

  • What a joke NZ Amex has taken this long. It's been available in Australia and other countries for years. It's still not available for Android.

  • Doesn't work on my Airpoints Platinum card - anyone else?

    • I had no trouble in adding "The American Express Airpoints Card " via the app. Try adding in via the app again

      • +1

        just tried it again now via the apple wallet app which worked!

        • I had to do a full log our before it let me add mine

  • Similar to this, Kiwibank finally have Google Pay in the past week or so.
