Apple Pay & Wallet Terms Updated

Apple has recently emailed users about changes to its Apple Pay and Wallet terms and conditions, which, curiously, came into effect in September. The email summarizes key revisions, including simplified terms across Apple devices, Apple Pay being a service of Apple Payments Services LLC for US customers, and standard assignment provisions. iOS 18.2 brought enhanced intelligence features, but these term changes seem unrelated.

The full terms and a privacy notice (dated September 2024) are available for review. While the changes appear minor, the delayed notification is unusual. This update follows other recent Apple news, such as discussions about Apple's role in tech and politics.

Key Changes

  • Simplified terms across devices.
  • Apple Pay service provider clarified for US users.
  • Standard assignment provisions added.

While these updates seem routine, the three-month delay in notification is noteworthy. For more on Apple's services and software, you might find ChatGPT's 2024 journey and key updates relevant.
