Frequently Asked Questions
Will I really be charged $1?
Yes, this is a real transaction. You will be charged $1.00 USD to your card through Apple Pay. This verifies your payment method is working correctly.
Is this safe and secure?
Yes, all payments are processed securely through Stripe, one of the world's most trusted payment processors. We never see or store your card details. Apple Pay adds an additional layer of security by not sharing your actual card number with merchants.
What devices support Apple Pay?
You need Safari browser on iPhone (6 and later), iPad (Air 2 and later, Mini 3 and later), or Mac with Touch ID. Your device must have Apple Pay enabled and at least one card added to Apple Wallet.
Why won't Apple Pay work for me?
Common issues include: using a browser other than Safari, Apple Pay not set up on your device, no cards added to Apple Wallet, or your card doesn't support Apple Pay. Make sure you're using an Apple device with Safari browser. See our
troubleshooting guide for more help.
What do I get after payment?
After successful payment, you'll receive instant confirmation that your Apple Pay works and a downloadable bad drawing of a cat as proof of purchase.
Can I test Apple Pay without being charged?
No, to truly verify your Apple Pay card works, a real transaction must be processed. This is the only way to confirm your card is active and approved for purchases. However, $1 is the minimum amount to provide you with certainty.
Is this for developers testing Apple Pay integration?
No, this service is designed for regular users who want to check if their Apple Pay card works. If you're a developer, you should use Stripe's test mode or Apple's sandbox environment.
How bad is the drawing?
Art is subjective. No refunds for anyone who finds the drawing to be amazing.
Why not have a good drawing?
I can't draw.
