With a US credit card only…ApplePay uses NFC, which is the same technology as Visa Paywave, MC Paypass and whatever Amex’s equivalent is..

Most places accept tap-to-pay now. Even my ZAGG kiosks do. Can’t wait to get my US-issued card in the mail to try it out.

I happen to have a US social security number from a business I used to own in the states. I used that along with my mailbox address.
