I selected the card I want to pay with from wallet. I try to make the payment with that card. On my phone it says the payment failed, however the card reader says the payment was accepted. I then get a notification that a different card in my wallet was charged even though I did not want to use that card.
I am in Spain and using a card from Australia. Looking into my wallet it appears it used my default card but still annoying as that card is aud and has high fees where the card I wanted to use was a travel card with Euro. Just annoying that I tried to pay with one card and it just used another automatically. I realised in apple wallet settings the card that was used was the default card so I have changed that now but still shouldn’t just default as there were sufficient funds on the card I tried to use . This has happened twice now since I arrived.

You’re the first in US to report this here in the Apple Support Community. Do you have a link to the Reddit thread?
Your first part is confusing, the part about a card not being setup for Tap-To-Pay. Please explain in more detail.
i am on holiday in Europe and have a wise card with euros. A few days ago I had an error when trying to pay only to realise the payment came off a different card. Tonight I used Apple Pay again and got the same error. I definitely selected the right card as the first time it happened I thought it was strange so have been extra careful in selecting the right card and tonight i got the same error then a message saying payment was made on another card. Super annoying.
I have experienced the same issue previously, and it just started happening again in the past two days. I am in the US, and both of my cards are credit cards. My experience is exactly the same as other users report. I double click the right button to use my default credit card, I receive a notification on the phone that the charge could not process, but a different credit card is charged without my authorization. Has anyone discovered a fix? This just started happening for me again since I installed an update. I’m on an 11 Pro running iOS 18.6.2
Yes, same here. And it’s been happening for months now. At first I thought it was at a specific gas station so I avoided it. Then it started happening sporadically elsewhere. Now it’s happening with increased frequency. I have triple checked all settings and have deselected any options to automatically charge a different card. This is a horrible bug that we need you, Apple, to please take seriously.
What country are you in?
Have you been able to resolve this issue?
How are you accessing the Wallet app? Are you clicking on the app on your Home Screen or are you double clicking the side button (power button). Are you also in UK?
In uk
My question was to community member Jesus_Saves1. YyyRob are you experiencing the same issue?
Are you also in the UK?
Haven’t talked with Apple Support yet. What do you mean by a dual network card?
Australia has cards that you can switch from debit to credit or vice versa, before you activate Apple Pay (double click side button).
No they are both just debit cards
