In short
Google Pay and Apple Pay only appear at checkout if your browser and device are compatible with those payment methods.
Apple Pay works in Safari on Apple devices only; Google Pay works in Chrome and other browsers on supported devices.
If neither option shows, you can always pay by credit or debit card, or with cryptocurrency instead.
Common reasons and how to fix them
You are using the wrong browser
Why this happens: Apple Pay is only available in Safari on Apple devices (iPhone, iPad, Mac). Google Pay requires a browser that supports the Payment Request API, such as Chrome.
How to fix it:
For Apple Pay - open checkout in Safari on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac.
For Google Pay - open checkout in Google Chrome on Android or desktop.
Avoid Firefox, Opera, or third-party browsers for these payment methods.
No card is saved in your wallet
Why this happens: Google Pay and Apple Pay only appear if you have at least one valid card saved in your device wallet. If the wallet is empty, the option will not be displayed.
How to fix it:
Open the Wallet app (iOS) or Google Pay app (Android).
Add a credit or debit card to your wallet.
Return to checkout and try again.
Your device does not support it
Why this happens: Older devices or operating system versions may not support Apple Pay or Google Pay at all, even with the right browser.
How to fix it:
Check that your device OS is up to date.
Confirm that your device model supports Apple Pay or Google Pay - check the Apple or Google support pages for the full device list.
If your device is not supported, use card or crypto payment instead.
Your region is not supported
Why this happens: Google Pay and Apple Pay availability depends on your location. Some countries are not supported by these services.
How to fix it:
Check if Apple Pay or Google Pay is available in your country via their official support pages.
If your region is not supported, choose card or crypto payment at checkout.
