Shopify + Apple Pay = Conversion Heaven for Mobile Apps

If you’ve ever bought something online with Apple Pay, you already know the feeling: double-click, Face ID, done. It’s quick, safe, and almost too easy.

Now, Shopify has taken that seamless checkout experience and brought it directly into your mobile app storefront on both product pages and cart pages.

This update isn’t just about convenience. It’s about conversions, and it’s a major win for merchants who want to turn browsing into buying, especially on mobile.

Why Apple Pay Is a Big Deal for eCommerce

Let’s start with the obvious: mobile commerce is booming. And on mobile, speed wins.

Every extra tap, every form field, every loading screen, those are all chances for someone to abandon their cart. Apple Pay solves that by offering a one-tap checkout that’s not only fast, but trusted by millions of iPhone users.

Customers already know how it works. They already use it everywhere else. And when they see that black Apple Pay button on your app, they’re more likely to follow through.

What’s New: Apple Pay Now Works Natively in Shopify Mobile Apps

Shopify now supports Apple Pay directly in your mobile app, without requiring third-party tools or custom dev work.

Available on Product and Cart Pages

You can now place Apple Pay buttons where they matter most:

• On product pages, for direct, fast purchases
• On cart pages, so users can skip traditional checkout entirely

This update is part of Shopify’s Mobile Buy SDK, which allows you to integrate native checkout flows with minimal setup.

Works with Shop Pay Too

Apple Pay now sits alongside Shop Pay, giving customers a choice between two of the fastest, most trusted checkout experiences available.

Faster Checkout = Higher Conversions

This update isn’t just about adding a trendy button. It’s about removing friction.

When a customer can go from “I want this” to “I bought this” in seconds, you’re less likely to lose the sale. Apple Pay turns hesitation into action-especially for:

• First-time buyers who don’t want to create an account
• Repeat customers who expect fast, modern checkout options
• Impulse purchases, where speed makes all the difference

In short: convenience converts. And Apple Pay delivers it, every time.
