How do my customers set up Apple Pay or Google Pay?

In addition to active Apple Pay and Google Pay accounts, your customers must use the correct corresponding browsers.

If a customer wants to use Apple Pay, they need to: 

1. Set up Apple Pay.
2. Use the Safari browser.

If a customer wants to use Google Pay, they need to:

• Set up Google Pay.
• Use the Chrome browser.

How are the Apple Pay and Google Pay buttons displayed at checkout?

The Apple Pay button displays the Apple logo followed by the word "Pay". It doesn't display a call to action like "Pay now", so it's not necessary to translate it for your customers.

The Google Pay button displays the call to action "Pay now". This does need to be translated. If a customer is using a Windows computer, the button is translated according to the default language of the browser. If a customer is using a Mac or Linux computer, the button is translated according to the default language of the operating system. Changing the default language of your eCom store will not translate the Google Pay button.
