when I preordered my iPhone 7, I used Apple Pay through the Apple Store app. Normally when I purchase something with Apple Pay (other retailers for instance) I get an Apple Pay notification showing me the charges. I noticed I didn't get a notification after I preordered. Is this because I haven't been charged yet? I'll get the notification when the phone ships?
 
You normally aren't charged until the device ships. Expect the notification right before it ships.
 
I paid with Apple Pay as well. I didn't get a notification, but I can see it in Wallet and as pending on my credit card.

Received an Apple Pay notification about 2 hours ago. After that, I checked my Apple.com order as well as my credit card account. My Apple order is now "Preparing for Shipment" and the pending charge appears on my credit card.

I see that on mine too but when I check my bank account online it hasn't even pinged it yet (granted, mine wont for some time. Gobble, gobble) but I would think there would be at least a pending showing that disappears in a couple days then charges when shipped. That's how it's gone down in the past.
 
i think a charge will only show through apple pay once apple starts to preparing for shipment,

i paid with apple pay as well last night to pre order my iphone 7 plus and i dont see anything on my credit card balance online nor do i see anything in the apple pay app, i have a delivery date of oct 4-10 so im not expecting to see a charge till something like say around oct 1 perhaps
 
Yeah I see my Next taxes under my recent transactions and I can see i have been charged but my status is still processing. I'm sure it will change sooner or later.
 
It will continue showing processing right up to when it gets shipped when the status will change to shipping.

At least I'll know my Apple Watch is arriving Friday.
I have a t mobile one block from work. I may try waiting in line for a phone
