r/AppleWatch on Reddit: Primarily use Apple Pay on my Watch
March 7, 2025 -
When I am shopping in stores, I almost always use my Watch to pay at checkout. It’s become a natural reflex for me for payments now. Anyone else do this too? I thought I’d bring up the discussion because I feel like I rarely see others using their Watches to pay. I’ll even get comments occasionally from cashiers that will say something like - “I didn’t know you could use the Watch!”
If you primarily use your iPhone to pay in stores, let me know why. I’m genuinely curious to hear the benefits over the Watch!

99% of the time use my phone rather than watch. Primarily because it’s it my hand already - I use my local grocery store’s app for a shopping list. Now if Apple notes came to the watch I wouldn’t need my phone in my hand for my shopping list at some stores like Costco. I thought I would use my watch more to scan into the gym, but the app I use to track my workouts is phone only so I can’t leave my phone at home or in the car.

r/AppleWatch on Reddit: Using Apple Pay
August 25, 2025 -
Often when I pay via my Apple Watch, the person behind the counter will be delighted to see it, telling how cool that is. About half the time, I point and say, “The Apple Watch you’re wearing will do this too!”
I am surprised at how many people don’t set up and use Apple Pay on the Watch. It’s very simple and much easier than digging out one’s iPhone or wallet.

I can understand when the watch first came out. Maybe they don’t know a lot of people with the watch? I get comments like this too and I think it myself it’s 2025. I do get annoyed when they don’t take Apple Pay because then I have to dig for my card.
