Re: [apple-iphone] TouchID

Touch ID is just one step in the Apple Pay process going on in the background such as instead of using the PAN (card number), a unique Device Account Number is assigned, encrypted and securely stored in the Secure Element on your iPhone or Apple Watch. Each transaction is authorized with a one-time unique number using your Device Account Number and instead of using the security code from the back of your card, Apple Pay creates a dynamic security code to securely validate each transaction.

After all of that and more is done, Touch ID basically allows all of those processes to finalize your purchase.

You are right- I was responding to another post. What is the difference? I have to use the touch id function to pay for apple pay and I thought that was the issue? Maybe not. Aren't they related?

Hi Ellen. I think you're talking about Apple Pay vs Touch ID.

I have only used my touchID three times after I got my 6+ iPhone. The first time it went thru flawlessly.
The second time it took about three times, but the cashier hadn't done this before either.
In the same day at a different check out, it did not again seem to connect right away when I held it up to the device. Seems to have a delay then suddenly connected.

I hope it will work better as time goes on.
