How to Change Your Default Card for Apple Pay Purchases on Your Apple Watch

You can change your default payment method in Apple Pay for Apple Watch. Here's how to do it.

 

Apple Pay provides a convenient way to make purchases on iPhone and Apple Watch when out and about (or in the comfort of your home) without needing your physical debit or credit card. You can add as many virtual cards to your Apple Pay as necessary. The first card you add ends up as your default, but you can change that with ease.
