Subway question - Why is it that at the subway entrance, when I go to tap my credit with Apple Pay it takes me so much longer than everyone else? Lol I usually have to tap, double click, and Face ID. But many people just seem to be able to tap….what am I missing?

you can go into your wallet/apple pay settings and choose a card for “express transit pass.” that way, you simply tap your phone, instead of having to go through the whole double-click, face ID, tap.

Same. I use a commuter card. Quick, easy and can't be skimmed without being identified.

Go in wallet settings and designate a cc as ‘express transit card’. Then direct tap works.

I did I can’t find a useful resource on how to get it. But someone below was kind enough to share a solution.

You get it authenticated and ready *before* you get to the turnstile.

It’s the same concept as deciding your pizza/bagel/coffee order *before* you get to the counter, instead of inconveniencing everyone else on the line behind you because you waited to start thinking about your order at the last possible second.
