The service is accessible on iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, and Mac and stores credit and debit card information in the Apple Wallet app. Making payments with Apple Pay is a breeze \u2013 simply hold your device near the contactless reader, and the payment process is automatic, using the stored card information.<\/p>\n<p>Apple Pay is renowned for its security features, using encryption to protect user information and an added layer of security through Touch ID or Face ID. The convenience factor is also impressive, with quick and effortless payments without the need to carry around cash or cards.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Kroger_and_Apple_Pay_A_match_not_yet_made\"><\/span>Kroger and Apple Pay: A match not yet made<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Regrettably, Kroger does not accept Apple Pay, nor has it integrated the service into its payment options. Whether in store or through the Kroger app, the popular grocery chain does not support Apple Pay.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, Kroger has invested in developing its own payment solution: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kroger.com\/d\/kroger-mobile-pay\">Kroger Pay<\/a>, which is available in-store and in their app.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Apple_Pay_in-store_or_at_the_pump_for_Kroger_Not_possible\"><\/span>Apple Pay in-store or at the pump for Kroger: Not possible<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Since Kroger does not accept Apple Pay, shoppers cannot use the digital wallet service in-store.
