American Express members can now use rewards points with Apple Pay | Infinium-tech
If you’re an American Express cardholder, you can now finally use your Membership Rewards points when checking out with Apple Pay for online purchases. You can redeem your points directly within the Apple Pay secure checkout experience, without the need to leave checkout, open another app, or complete additional redemption steps.
Make your purchase as usual online or in the apps on your iPhone or iPad, select Apple Pay at checkout, then select an eligible American Express card, select Use Rewards and enter the amount of points you want to use to cover all or part of your purchase. Your Membership Rewards points are redeemed upon completing the transaction, and that’s it.
When you do this, Amex notes that Apple will not retain any transaction information associated with you. To add your Amex card for use with Apple Pay, go to the Wallet app, tap the + button, hold your card near the iPhone and follow the instructions. Then make your Amex card the default card for Apple Pay and you’re all set.
