BGR Highlights 3 Apple Pay Features for Order Tracking, Passes and Rewards
4 articles · Updated · Boy Genius Report · May 27
BGR’s latest Apple Pay guide spotlights three underused tools: in-app order tracking, Apple Wallet storage for tickets and keys, and applying some credit-card rewards at checkout.
Apple Pay orders can appear in Apple Wallet’s Orders section, where users can view status, jump to a merchant’s site, or contact the seller, though support varies by device, software and merchant setup.
Apple Wallet also stores boarding passes, event tickets and some car keys; iPhone settings can keep passes synced through iCloud and make them accessible from the lock screen.
For online purchases, some cards and retailers let users tap a Use Rewards prompt in Apple Pay to redeem points, underscoring Apple’s push to make Wallet a broader commerce hub.
As Apple Wallet consolidates our keys and tickets, what new security vulnerabilities does this 'all-in-one' convenience create?
With AI scanning emails for order tracking, how does Apple ensure user privacy isn't the price for this convenience?
Will the upcoming 'Create a Pass' feature finally let us digitize every card, or will technical and security limitations remain?
