Apple Pay does not store the actual card numbers on the device or its server.

Instead, it allots a unique device account number that is encrypted and then stored on the mobile device.
Transactions on Apple Pay are authenticated through a one-time unique dynamic security code.
Apple Pay is compatible with iPhone, Apple Watch, iPad and Mac.
Customers can add their card directly in the N26 app or add the card via Apple Wallet.
