How to Verify Paypal on App Store
Apple's digital wallet – Apple Pay¹ – is a handy way to make purchases in person and online. Unfortunately at the moment, you can't use Apple Pay and PayPal together – although you can link your Apple ID to PayPal for some in app purchases. This guide will tell you how.
| We'll also take a look at the Wise multi-currency Mastercard as an alternative to use with your Apple Pay account, to cut costs and spend conveniently. It could end up being up to 4x cheaper for spending abroad. |

Apple Pay and PayPal – the basics
As we have noted, you can't use your PayPal account with Apple Pay. That means you can't use PayPal to fund contactless purchases on the iPhone or Apple Watch. It's also worth noting that you can't use a PayPal Cash Card with Apple Pay.²
It is, however, possible to add PayPal to your Apple ID to make in app purchases. That means you can use PayPal to buy from the App Store, Apple Books or iTunes, or to buy Apple iCloud storage.
Try Wise instead
You can't link your PayPal account or card to Apple Pay. But you can access simple, low cost payments using Apple Pay, if you use a Wise multi-currency account and Mastercard instead. If you're spending overseas, or shopping online with retailers based abroad, this may also save you money compared to PayPal.
Get a Wise multi-currency account online to hold dozens of currencies and access currency conversion at the mid-market rate. Simply switch to the currency you need for a low, upfront charge, and you can spend using the card, with no additional foreign transaction fees. Link to Apple Pay for convenience, and you're all set.

While purchasing apps or media content with an Apple ID, most people enter a credit or debit card. But if you'd prefer to use PayPal to buy apps from the Apple App Store or the Mac App Store, it's easy to set up on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac. Here's how.
How to Add PayPal as an App Store Payment Method on iPhone and iPad
Before we begin, we'll assume that you already have an Apple ID that you use to purchase apps. If not, it's easy to create one. Apple IDs are cloud-based accounts that apply to Apple services across all Apple devices.
On an iPhone or iPad, it's easy to add PayPal as an Apple ID payment method from the Settings app. It's worth noting that once you add it using your iPhone or iPad, the payment method will apply to your Apple ID on any platform, including the Mac. Here's how to set it up.
First, open "Settings" on your iPhone or iPad.
At the very top of Settings, tap your Apple ID account name.
In your Apple ID settings, tap "Payment & Shipping."
In "Payment & Shipping" settings, tap "Add Payment Method."
In the list of options, tap "PayPal," then tap "Log In to PayPal."
Next, log into PayPal using your PayPal account. You also have the option to create a new PayPal account during this step. Once you're logged in, review your PayPal payment options and click "Agree & Continue."
After that, PayPal will be added to your payment methods list on your Apple ID. By default, Apple will use it to charge your account when you purchase apps from the App Store.
How to Add PayPal as an App Store Payment Method on Mac
You can also add PayPal as a payment method for your Apple ID using your Mac.
It's worth noting that if you share an Apple ID between all of your devices and you've already added PayPal as a payment method using your iPhone or iPad, you don't have to do it again with the Mac. The PayPal option will already be set up.
The easiest way to associate PayPal with your Apple ID on a Mac is by using the Mac App Store, which you can find quickly by opening Spotlight by clicking the magnifying glass icon in the menu bar and typing "App Store."
First, open the "App Store" on your Mac, then click your Apple ID name in the corner.
On the next page, click "View Information."
On the "Account Information" screen, look for the "Apple ID Summary" section. Then click "Manage Payments."
On the "Manage Payments" screen, click "Add Payment."
When the "Add Payment" screen appears, select the "PayPal" logo from the list of payment methods, then click "Log In to PayPal."
Follow the PayPal login process and accept the terms. When you're done, PayPal will be added as a payment option to your Apple account.
How to Remove PayPal as an App Store Payment Method
If you change your mind and would like to remove PayPal from your Apple ID payment methods, you can do it through any interface where you can manage your Apple ID account.
On an iPhone or iPad, navigate to Settings > Apple ID > Payment & Shipping, then tap the "PayPal" method from the list and select "Remove Payment Method."
On a Mac, the procedure is similar. Open the App Store and visit Apple ID > View Information > Manage Payments, then click the "PayPal" option and click "Remove Payment Method."
PayPal can be used in numerous ways to send or receive money.
You can't add a PayPal account to your Apple Pay account, however. This means you can't use PayPal on your iPhone or Apple Watch to make contactless Apple Pay payments.
This doesn't mean that you can't use PayPal on your phone at all, though; you can add your PayPal account to your Apple ID. This will let you buy apps and music using your PayPal account on Apple apps.
Here's how to connect your PayPal account to your Apple ID.
Check out the products mentioned in this article:
iPhone 11 (From $699.99 at Best Buy)
Apple Watch Series 5 (From $399.99 at Best Buy)
How to add PayPal to your Apple ID
1. Unlock your iPhone and head to "Settings."
2. Tap your name, which is located on top of the "Settings" page.
3. Click on "iTunes & App Store."
4. On the next screen, tap "Apple ID" then select "View Apple ID" and login to your Apple ID account.
5. Once you are logged into your Apple ID, click on "Manage Payments."
6. Click on "Add Payment Method," then tap on "PayPal" on the next screen.
7. Log into your PayPal account and confirm that you're adding PayPal onto your Apple ID account.
Now, when you purchase apps or music within Apple apps, your iPhone should default to using your PayPal account.
The new payment option is only available in the US and UK — and only on Apple's website at this point.
You can now pay for your next iPhone or iPad at Apple's online store using your PayPal account.
Previously, you could pay for Apple products and accessories online using only a credit card, special financing or an Apple Store gift card. But now when you order an item through Apple's online store, you'll see PayPal listed as an additional payment option. Select PayPal, and Apple will direct you to the PayPal site to sign in and confirm your purchase.
So far, the PayPal option is available only on Apple's website and does not appear on the Apple Store mobile iOS app. Support is limited to just the US and UK.
PayPal has long been an option for Apple iTunes and App Store content. You can set up your Apple account to pay for such digital items via a credit card or PayPal. But this is the first time Apple has supported PayPal as an online payment option for physical items, such as iPhone, iPads, Macs and all the related products and accessories.
Apple and PayPal have had a seemingly more competitive relationship as of late. Apple's new mobile payments system, Apple Pay, certainly stands to rival PayPal for mobile transactions. Launching Apple Pay during the iPhone 6 event in September, Apple didn't announce PayPal as one of its partners. Shortly after the event, PayPal took a dig at Apple Pay by by hinting that it may not be as secure as Apple claims.

So just why have Apple and PayPal come together for this new option?
For PayPal, the move gives it access to the second largest online retailer in the US, according to Internet Retailer. And for Apple, the move lets it expand the ways that its customers can afford its products.
PayPal gives you the ease of use and the security of using a single online account rather than forcing you to juggle with credit cards. Further, Apple is offering PayPal credit with no interest, so you can take as long as 18 months to pay off any purchase more than $250. That could certainly help people better afford Apple's pricier items, such as a Retina Display iMac or a top-of-the-line Mac Pro. PayPay credit could also serve as a handy option to pay for the most luxurious and expensive edition of the Apple Watch when that device launches sometime early next year.
Apple and PayPal did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Apple now lets you use your PayPal account to buy apps, songs, books and more across all your Apple devices. Here's how to set it up.
Buying stuff on your iPhone is already pretty easy, especially if you use Apple Pay's ultra-fast fingerprint authentication. But if you rely on PayPal for your online transactions, as hundreds of millions of people do, now you can link your PayPal account to your Apple ID for speedy transactions.
Apple just added PayPal as a default option for making purchases across Apple's own services on your iOS device, including iTunes, the App Store, Apple Music, and iBooks. That means you can use PayPal to pay for songs, books, apps, and even your monthly iCloud and Apple Music subscriptions. This extends to purchases made on all Apple devices, including the Apple TV and Apple Watch.
The good news is that setting up a PayPal account that ties into your Apple ID is super simple, once you figure out where to go.
1. First you have to get to your Apple ID settings on your iPhone, which you can do through the App Store, Apple Music, iTunes or iBooks apps. You can also go to Settings and tap iTunes & App Store.
2. Navigate to Account Settings from the Apple ID page and tap on Payment Information.
3. Select PayPal.
4. Sign into your PayPal account and make sure your PayPal details are up-to-date.
5. Tap Agree & Continue.
Make sure PayPal has a checkmark next to it so you know it's the new default. Now your PayPal account will be charged for all of your Apple entertainment purchases.
PayPal's One Touch feature, which allows you to make purchases with your PayPal account without logging in for each transaction, extends to Apple services. Once you make PayPal your default payment option, you don't have to log in again to verify transactions.
PayPal's Apple ID integration for iOS is now available to users in the U.S., U.K., Canada, Mexico, Australia, Germany, Italy, France, Spain, Israel, Austria and the Netherlands.
