Apple Pay is one of the most popular digital payment services in the world, allowing users to buy stuff on iOS apps, the web and in real life. You can use it to pay with your iPhone, Apple Watch, iPad and Mac, and it's accepted by thousands upon thousands of retailers. The cool thing about Apple Pay is that it actually digitizes debit/credit card chips, giving people the option of contactless payments. All you have to do is put your phone or watch up to the terminal.
However, you can’t do any of that stuff until you set up Apple Pay on your device. Here’s how to do just that.
Apple Pay was originally envisioned as a mobile-only platform, so getting it set up on your iPhone will help you with every other device you own. To set up Apple Pay on your phone, add a debit or credit card to the Wallet app.
1. Open the Wallet app on your iPhone. Look for a colorful wallet icon or search the phone’s contents to find it.
2. Tap the Add Card button. You may be prompted to sign in with your Apple ID, so do that.
3. Select the card. The app will ask you what kind of card you’re entering, so click on Debit or Credit.
4. Enter the card information. You can do this manually or by positioning the card so that it appears in the camera frame. This enables the phone to snap a photo of the card.
5. You can also click on Previous Cards. Clicking on Previous Cards lets you choose any cards you’ve used in the past to bring them into Apple Pay. You’ll get a list of possible cards via purchases made with your Apple ID and Safari AutoFill. Once you tap on a card, authenticate with Face ID or Touch ID.
6. Consider other options. Apple Pay also lets you enter driver’s licenses, state IDs and transit cards.
7. Finish up. Once finished, head to Settings to make final adjustments. Tap your preferred option as to how you want your card to appear. You can make it so cards show up on the screen when you double-click the side button or the home button.
8. That’s it. Now you can buy stuff by pulling up a digital replica of your card.
Apple Watch integrates with Apple Pay for an incredibly convenient payment option, as you don’t even need your phone nearby. Here’s how to get set up on your smartwatch.
1. Grab your phone. This process is quicker if you already have a card entered into your iPhone, but we’ll walk you through both procedures.
2. Head to the Watch app. If you already have a card stored, open up the Watch app. Tap My Watch and then Wallet & Apple Pay.
3. You should see a list of available cards. Tap Add next to the card you want and then enter the CVV, which is the number on the back. That’s it. You should be able to use your watch to make payments.
4. Open the Wallet app on your watch. If you’re entering a card manually on the actual watch, start by opening up the Wallet app. Tap the More Options button and then Add Card.
5. Enter card details. Follow on the on-screen prompts to enter your various card details.
6. Finish up. Once finished, head back into the Wallet app. Tap More Options, followed by Default Card. Look for the card you just entered and tap it to set it as the default. You’re good to go.
The iPad is basically a big iPhone, so the set-up process is similar. You can’t use Apple’s tablet at a physical payment terminal, but it’s a great option for making online purchases.
1. Open up Settings. Head to Settings and tap Wallet & Apple Pay.
2. Tap Add Card. You may be asked to sign in with your Apple ID. Have your login credentials handy.
3. Tap Debit or Credit Card and then Continue. Just like with the iPhone, you can enter card details manually or let the tablet’s camera snap a photo of the card.
4. Consider previously-used cards. You can also click on Previous Cards and select cards that you’ve used in the past. This will bring up a list of possible cards. Tap on a card and authenticate with Touch ID.
Mac laptops and desktops are also a no-go for physical sales terminals, for obvious reasons. However, it’s still useful to have Apple Pay as an option when buying stuff online. Here’s how to get set up.
1. Head to System Settings. On your Mac, head to System Settings. Next, click Wallet & Apple Pay.
2. Click on Add Card. You’ll be asked to sign in with your Apple ID. Enter your credentials and then return to Wallet & Apple Pay.
3. Enter card details. Click Enter Card Details Manually and input your payment information in the appropriate fields, or position the card in front of your computer’s camera so it appears in frame. The computer will snap a photo and record all relevant data. Double-check to make sure everything looks right.
4. You can also use a card that’s already on file with Apple. You should see a list of cards you previously entered for use on the iTunes Store or the App Store. Click on the desired card and enter the security code when asked.
5. That’s all there is to it. Keep an eye on your Apple ID account. If you sign out of your account to let someone else use the computer, you may have to set up Apple Pay again.
That’s it. Apple Pay is set up and ready to go. We also whipped up a guide on how to use the service once set up.

In today’s day and age, nothing represents who we are better than a well-groomed face, hair, and body. Taking care of yourself, and presenting your best face forward to the world always seems to cultivate good relationships, and also leads to a lot of doors opening up! As hectic as life can get, it’s imperative to take some time off to invest in a good skincare routine, or a quick morning grooming session. These simple self-care activities not only make you look better but also feel better. We’ve curated a collection of must-have self-care and grooming products that we feel are essentials for the gentlemen out there.
Called the Paper Razor, this single-use razor sports an all-paper body with a metal blade-head on top. It features a flat-packed design that can be easily unfolded and put together in a matter of seconds, by simply folding in the sides, forming a rigid and ergonomic razor with a grippy handle.
It features an origami-inspired design that gives it as much strength and maneuverability as a plastic razor, while also reducing the use of plastic by as much as 98%. The razor can be easily flat-packed and shipped, used, and then disposed of.
If you’re a guy who wants to indulge in some self-care but doesn’t want to get a mask from Sephora, then this Nike LED mask is the one for you! It’s a conceptual product designed to allow people to take care of their skin without being dependent on someone to take them to a facility.
The beauty device’s CMF allows the user to get comfortable with using it, as they easily and quickly identify and relate with Nike’s existing sporty, refreshing, and fun image. It is smooth and sleek, with a futuristic aesthetic!
Called QuickCut, this hair trimmer from Remington rises against the notion that a hair trimmer should be ‘handle-shaped’, by making it soap-shaped instead! It is designed to provide a better grip with increased maneuverability.
The QuickCut trimmer is quite perfect as it lets you grip it naturally while moving it around your body, irrespective it’s the top of your head, body, or your ‘garden of masculinity’.
Dubbed one&done, this ingenious design integrates a toothbrush and a candy dispenser. It is inspired by a PEZ dispenser, and the toothbrush is equipped with a convenient little storage space to accommodate toothpaste tablets, eradicating the need for toothpaste tubes.
The design allows you to carry your toothpaste and toothbrush in one compact form and prevents any mess that may occur when carrying and handling a tube of toothpaste.
Called Refresh, this sustainable and refillable deodorant is an innovative design that truly redefines personal care standards, while also making a dramatic and important impact on environmental conservation. It’s a groundbreaking product that could change the way we take care of ourselves and the environment!
Refresh upcycles waste plastics to create its packaging, in turn building a sustainable approach that allows discarded materials to be reused in a refreshing manner. Another impressive feature is its refillable design, which makes the inner chamber of the deodorant easily replaceable.
For those who love to take special care of their skin, we have this new-age LED mask. Called the VEAU LED mask, this innovative product uses LED technology to provide users with personalized and revolutionized skincare experiences.
The VEAU LED Mask is a premium facial mask that uses light therapy to improve the health and look of the skin. It has an ergonomic shape that fits the curves of the face gently, allowing for a relaxing and effective treatment.
Called the Manmower, this intriguing and ludicrous product is truly sheer genius. It’s a lawnmower for your jawline. It features an internal blade that slices away at your facial hair, leaving only a faint casual stubble behind. It works just the day a lawnmower slices the grass in your lawn to a short length.
It needs no electricity, shaving cream, and water, nor does it need any prep. You just need to pull it out and roll it across your jawline, and it cuts away at your beard, giving you a uniform stubble.
Dubbed the usmile Y10 Pro, this cutting-edge device is designed to provide you with an excellent and elevated dental care experience. It merges advanced technology with user-friendly features, providing you with a bright and healthy smile
It features intelligent sensors that monitor your brushing technique. It also offers real-time feedback for a more effective and efficient cleanup. It has customizable modes to meet every user’s individual needs.
Meet the Shower Scrubber, a unique dual-sided design that allows you to pick between two sides – the softer side which is great for massaging, and the exfoliating side to help you get rid of all your dry skin. It features a radical new redesign with a honeycomb pattern on one side and a walnut-shell textured surface on the other.
The guitar-pick-shaped product features a honeycomb texture which is inspired by Casamera’s waffle-textured towels, which gently massage and pampers your skin. While the other side has particles of walnut shells suspended within the surface, building a satisfying exfoliating experience.
Designed by Kong Dezheng, this Multifunctional Convenient Shaver is a one-piece two-part product that lets you take control and take the best care of your frizzy and unkept facial hair.
It is a pen-shaped device that can be easily slipped into your pocket, letting you carry it around with you everywhere. The pen also packs a pair of grooming scissors on one end, and a folding razor on the other, allowing you to groom yourself on the go.

Whether you're looking for a last-minute Valentine's Day gift for your special someone or a pick-me-up as winter rages, discounted AirPods are a solid option. Right now, Apple's third-generation AirPods are down from $169 to $140 – a 17 percent discount. The sale brings these earbuds down to the lowest we've seen them this year.
The third-gen Apple AirPods came on the scene in 2021 as a major upgrade to their predecessor. For starters, they have a comfier design and IPX4-level sweat and water resistance. The third-gen AirPods also offer six hours of playtime (30 overall with the case), wireless charging with a Qi‑certified wireless charger and one hour of juice in just five minutes in the case. Plus, this model has always-on Siri and more accurately detects when the AirPods are in your ear.
Are you looking for just the basics in your AirPods purchase? The second-generation model AirPods are also on sale, with a 30 percent discount dropping the price from $129 to $90. However, they don't have wireless charging and last only five hours, or 24 hours with the case.
If noise canceling is vital to you, then the second-gen AirPods Pro might be the right call instead. They're currently 24 percent off, dropping from $249 to $190 — not far off from the standard price for the classic third-gen AirPods. In addition to noise canceling, the second-gen AirPods Pro offer transparency mode and Adaptive Audio. They also have six hours of battery life and 30 hours with the case. Plus, both the AirPods and the MagSafe case are IP54 sweat, dust and water resistant.

Meta’s Oversight Board wants the company to update its manipulated media policy, calling the current rules “incoherent.” This follows the board’s decision about a misleadingly edited video of President Joe Biden.
The video featured footage from October 2022, when the president accompanied his granddaughter, who was voting in person for the first time. News footage shows him placing an “I voted” sticker on her shirt. A Facebook user later shared an edited version that looped the moment, so it appeared as if he repeatedly touched her chest, adding the caption that Biden was a “sick pedophile.”
The Oversight Board said the video did not violate Meta’s manipulated media policy because it wasn’t edited with AI tools, and because the edits were “obvious and therefore unlikely to mislead.” (Has the board been on Facebook?)
The board said it was concerned about the current manipulated media policy in many ways, including how it was overly focused on how content has been created rather than on which specific harms it prevents (like damaging electoral processes). It wrote Meta should “reconsider this policy quickly, given the number of elections in 2024.”

Microsoft’s gaming division appears to be considering a significant shift in its major-exclusives strategy. Rumors have been swirling for a while about the company bringing Hi-Fi Rush, a well-received game from last year, and Sea of Thieves to Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 5. But the company could add some of its more recent blockbuster Xbox exclusives to the PS5 as well, which would mark a monumental change in policy. Multiple publications suggested several games could make the jump, including the Gears of War series, Indiana Jones and Starfield. “We’re listening and we hear you,” Xbox boss Phil Spencer wrote on X: “We’ve been planning a business update event for next week, where we look forward to sharing more details with you about our vision for the future of Xbox. Stay tuned.”
Microsoft is teaming up with media website Semafor on a new project that uses ChatGPT to aid the creation of news stories, called signals. It’s one of several journalism collaborations Microsoft is announcing, conveniently following that New York Times lawsuit filed against the company and OpenAI for copyright infringement.
Google reportedly plans to develop a YouTube app for the Apple Vision Pro. A YouTube spokesperson confirmed to The Verge that the company plans to make a native Vision Pro app while optimizing YouTube for Safari as a stopgap solution. Despite Vision Pro launching with over 600 native apps, YouTube said on January 19 it had no plans for a Vision Pro app. Netflix is another high-profile holdout, while Disney+ went all in.
