Thanks to Safari AutoFill using your Apple Card online is easy — here’s how

Just because a website doesn't take Apple Pay, doesn't mean you can't use your Apple Card.

Apple Card is a credit card; a MasterCard, to be precise. That means anywhere MasterCard is accepted, so is your Apple Card. It's not exclusive to Apple Pay and you don't need the physical card to buy online. The easiest way to make sure your Apple Card is ready to go when you want to use it online is to let Safari's Autofill feature take care of the rest.

Your Apple Card should automatically appear in Safari's Autofill. But if, for any reason, you need to add it manually, here's how.

How to find your Apple Card account number

Whether you manually add your Apple Card to Safari's AutoFill or just need to find it, you can access your Apple Card account number from within the Wallet app.

  1. Open the Wallet app on your iPhone.
  2. Tap your Apple Card.
  3. Tap the More button in the top-right corner. It looks like three dots.

  4. Tap Card Information.
  5. Note the Card Number and Expiration date.

In this section, you'll find your card number, your physical card number, and your device account number. It's important to understand the differences between these three so you know which to use and when.

  • Card Number - This is the number that you manually enter in the credit card number field for online payments. It is also the number you will use with Safari AutoFill on Mac and iCloud Keychain on iPhone and iPad.
  • Physical Card - This is the last four digits of the card number that appears on receipts when you make a purchase with your physical Apple Card. If you need to return an item to a store in-person, you'll show them this number.
  • Device Account Number - This is your Apple Pay number. Any time you use Apple Pay to make a purchase with your Apple Card, this is the last four digits of the card number that is used.

For the purposes of manually adding your Apple Card to Safari Autofill, you'll want the Card Number.
