You've decided to add your Walletium virtual card to your iPhone's Apple Wallet - a great idea. This makes paying with Apple Pay a breeze: just double-click, use Face ID, and tap. It's that simple. With your virtual card stored in Apple Wallet, you can enjoy the convenience of effortless payments.

Adding a virtual card is a pretty straightforward process that only takes a few minutes to complete. If you're new to this, don't worry, we'll break it down into simple steps so you can follow along easily. Just take a deep breath and let's get started, one step at a time.

Step 1 — Start with the Wallet App

To get started, you need to open the Wallet app on your iPhone.

When you're adding a card for the first time, the app will walk you through the process step by step. But if you've already added cards before, it will show you the ones you've already set up.

Now click the plus sign in the top corner.

This is where you can add new cards to your account, like credit cards, bus passes, or other types of passes, all in one place.

Step 2 — Choose Debit or Credit Card

Next, select “Debit or Credit Card.”

When you start using Apple Pay, you'll see a brief intro screen that explains how it works and what you can do with your card for contactless payments. Just tap on Continue to move forward.

If you're using an iPhone, it might ask if you want to scan a physical card with the camera. But since you're working with a virtual card from Walletium, you'll need to scroll down and tap on the option that lets you add it manually.

“Enter Card Details Manually.”

Step 3 — Enter Your Card Information

Now you need to enter your card information.

Enter the following:

* Cardholder name

* Card number

Then tap Next.

After that, fill in the remaining details:

* Expiry date

* Security code (CVV)

Once everything looks correct, press Next again.

Your iPhone is going to get in touch with the bank that issued your card to start checking everything out.

Step 4 — Accept the Terms

When you're getting ready to activate your Apple device, it will display the Terms and Conditions that come from the card issuer, so you can review them before moving forward.

Scroll through and tap Agree.

We're going to add your card now, and this should only take a few seconds.

Step 5 — Verify Your Card

Security check — totally normal.

To get started, select Text Message as the way you want to verify your account, then tap Next.

You will soon get a verification code from the Walletium bot.

Just enter the code they gave you into the box that says verification, then click confirm.

Step 6 — Card Activated

And that’s it.

Once you've confirmed your code, your Walletium card will be ready to use.

Added to Apple Wallet
Activated for Apple Pay

When you tap Next, Apple will display a brief screen that walks you through how to use Apple Pay.

From now on you can:

Double-click the side button

Authenticate with Face ID or passcode

Hold your phone near the payment terminal

Fast. Simple. Almost like magic.

Using Your Walletium Card with Apple Pay

When you activate your Walletium card, it works just like any other card you'd use with Apple Pay.

You can use it:

In stores with NFC payment terminals

In apps that support Apple Pay

On websites that accept Apple Pay checkout

You can use your iPhone as a wallet, so there's no need to carry a physical card around.

Final Thoughts

Adding a Walletium virtual card to your Apple Wallet is a breeze - it only takes around 2-3 minutes to complete. After that, making everyday payments becomes a whole lot easier and faster.

Using Apple Pay for a bit makes you feel like pulling out a real card is kinda outdated.

If you're exploring crypto-friendly payment tools or modern digital banking, Walletium paired with Apple Pay is a pretty neat combo.

So, once you've added the card to your Wallet, you can just tap to pay, and you're good to go.
