2021年7月13日更新:更新了接受Apple Pay的金融机构列表。基本上绝大部分的加拿大银行 / 信用社的信用卡都可使用Apple Pay了。有Apple Watch的朋友在Apple Watch上使用Apple Pay,则会有效增加刷AmEx卡的机率。
【本文首发于2016年8月3日】Apple Pay是基于NFC短距离通信技术,使用时无需有网络。聚沙觉得在北美使用手机支付,目前还是Apple Pay的体验最方便。
除了便捷外,Apple Pay的安全性能也做的很好,iPhone上不直接存储信用卡信息,而是一个由卡组织发放加密的一个token,存放在iPhone的独立安全芯片中,用它代替磁条上的信息。用户数据加密存储在硬件中,数据传输也是加密的,支付时要指纹或面部ID识别认证。只有认证通过的时候,iPhone才允许你利用NFC读取token出来。假设token泄漏,也无法逆向还原出信用卡信息。
Apple Pay的绑卡是在线的,你需要首先在iPhone输入信用卡信息,Apple Pay把你的信用卡信息拿到卡组织处验证,卡组织验证通过后,将token发送到Apple Pay,存放在iPhone的安全芯片中【关于Apple Pay的技术介绍,多谢百度百科】。
