If you've ever shopped at SHEIN before, you must have noticed that they accept many different payment methods—and just like any other shopping retailer, they have embraced a good number of digital payment methods, allowing shoppers to shop for what they need and pay the way they want.
If Apple Pay is what you want to use to make payments at SHEIN, I've explained the best way to use Apple Pay on SHEIN.
Does SHEIN Take/Accept Apple Pay?
Yes, SHEIN does take Apple Pay as a payment method. However, Apple Pay will only be listed as a payment method at the checjout if you are using an Apple Pay-supported device.
I've explained the entire process in the lines that follow.
Can You Use Apple Pay on SHEIN?
Yes, you can use Apple Pay on SHEIN, but that won't be on any device.
That said, you can only use Apple Pay on SHEIN directly with an iPhone device that supports the digital wallet.
According to official sources, any iOS device (iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Apple Vision Pro, and Mac) with Touch ID should support Apple Pay. You can learn more from Apple's website.
But since the SHEIN app is typically available for mobile devices, we'll have to stick to iPhones (as from iPhone 6 with Touch ID) and iPads with Touch ID as devices that will let you use Apple Pay on SHEIN.
I wasn't too sure about this at the start since Apple Pay isn't mentioned anywhere as a payment method on SHEIN's website.
So I decided to take things at hand and try it out on my iPad Air 2. I followed the normal process to place an order and proceeded to the checkout. Once there, I confirmed that Apple Pay is only available for supported iOS devices.
You can confirm this by yourself from the screenshot below, which I took from my checkout.
All this is just to say that you can use Apple Pay on SHEIN directly through your supported iPhone or iPad device. I've seen a lot of sources and threads saying otherwise, but just give it a try and see for yourself.
