How it works
You can use eligible debit or credit card rewards to make purchases when you check out with Apple Pay online and in apps on your iPhone or iPad.1 Whatever type of rewards you have — cash back, points, or miles — your card issuer will convert them into a dollar amount so that you can apply them to your purchase when you check out with Apple Pay.
When you use rewards for a purchase, the full purchase amount is charged when you check out. Your debit or credit card issuer will provide a statement credit equal to the value of the rewards used for the purchase after the purchase is completed.
Use rewards to make purchases

Tap the Apple Pay button or choose Apple Pay as your payment method.
Tap a card that supports rewards. If your card supports this feature you'll see a Use Rewards hint under your card. You can also see your available rewards balance.2 To use a different card, tap Change Payment Method or Other Cards & Pay Later Options.
Tap Use Rewards.
Enter the amount of rewards that you want to apply to your purchase. You can apply rewards for the full purchase amount or you can apply rewards to a part of the purchase amount, depending on your available balance.
Tap Done.
Confirm the payment using Face ID, Touch ID, or your passcode.
If your card is supported but you don't see the option to use rewards, contact your card issuer for more information. Some card issuers might require you to opt in through a bank app or website before using rewards with Apple Pay.
