How can I stop one website from trying to charge me through Apple Pay?

I have a reoccurring charge each month. This is the second time last time I had to get a whole new card from my bank now it has happened again. How can I stop this without having to get a whole new card again? Is it did not even work last time because it is going through Apple Pay. I have tried to tone to the company that is billing but they are on an unsecured server and went the first six and the last four numbers on my card. I’m not willing to give that information so I can get no further with them.

Apple Pay has nothing to do with you being billed. Whomever you purchased the service/subscription from needs to stop billing. Getting a new card will not stop recurring charges from a merchant as credit card issuers typically provide an update service to merchants that updates card details. Using Apple Pay provides only a device ID, not a card number; but Apple Pay is only a digital wallet provider, not a biller.

You don't even have access to the device number provided to the merchant, so that will not be possible. I would contact your card issuer and see if they might be able to get involved on your behalf; perhaps your bank's fraud department. Or, alternatively, there should be some other means by which to cancel from the merchant's website.

In regards to contacting the company billing.


I have contacted the company that is billing, but seems to be a third-party billing on behalf of someone else. They will get the scores no information unless I give them the first six and the last four numbers of that account trying to be billed, which would be the card? I have set up on Apple Pay. I have change the card with my bank, but since it is through Apple Pay, it just keeps getting billed.

I understand this but without being able to get any info out of the billing company website, I am giving them more personally detail of my card number. I don’t know how to get it to stop. And that is what I’m trying to find out. They are on an unsecured server and want the first six and last four numbers of the card which isn’t even the card number they have I believe since it’s through Apple.pay which I believe if I am understanding correctly because it’s a different number for the card registered?

so again, I’m trying to find out what I can do without having to give this website more info or having to freeze my bank account once again. Do I just not use Apple Pay anymore ever? I am at a loss.
