Because I can’t square cash or Venmo at most stores, this acts as a separate debit card in ways.
Are you able to set it up with a UK bank account? I thought/assumed it was US-only...
Ah, the infamous $20 for noodle money
Sorry, I didn't get this reference even though I heard how instant ramen is a form of cheap food for college students in the States. Ramen is a comfort/luxury food over here and we call instant ramen "instant noodles"
Can anyone help explain this?
What a joke. I have to setup a fake debit card, move money in/out of it to use the feature. How is this useful at all? If I could tie my bank account directly to it then I would be all on board. Thanks, but no thanks, Apple. Pass.
It's apparently a Discover Debit card according to Wallet. Yeah, that's not going to have merchant compatibility issues at all.
I think as a parent I would never send my kid just $1.00 for a few packs of roman, if they are complaining about being hungry.
Sure, if you can pry open their eyes and make them stare at the camera while asleep.
It would be easier for you just to use TouchID.
I still want to know how safe it is? Is it like cash where once I have the money, I have it? No risk of chargeback, etc? Or is it like Venmo where you can get ripped off if you use it for craigslist sales?
No fee transferring. There is a 3 % fee if you add money to your Apple Pay Cash card with a credit card. No fee if you add money to Apple Pay Cash with a debit card

Feature is not available in international markets and is only available in the US. Due to the way the feature operates it would require a partnership with a third party in each country.
This year at WWDC.
Apolloa, I agree with DaveOP.
Though some places do not take Apple Pay, some do not take other mobile type payments as well, my overall experience with Apple Pay where accepted have been excellent. That is both with the iPhone 6S Plus and Apple Watch 3 LTE version. Also, my iOS devices, iPhone, Apple Watch, and iPad Air2 have not experienced any issues with iOS 11.x. Sorry to hear you are having issues.
