To use the Wallet API, you can refer to the session titled "What’s new in Wallet and Apple Pay" from WWDC 2024. This session covers several updates and features related to Apple Pay and Wallet, including:

  1. Apple Pay on the Web: With iOS 18, Apple Pay can be used on any non-Safari browser by scanning a code with an iPhone to complete payments securely and privately. This expands the Apple Pay user experience to devices outside the Apple ecosystem.

  2. Funds Transfer Capabilities: The session discusses the expansion of funds transfer capabilities to the web, allowing users to withdraw money from a stored value or bank account to any user card registered with Apple Pay. It's important to check with your payment processor to ensure they support disbursements.

  3. APIs for Apple Pay: The session highlights the use of the canMakePayments API or the new Apple Pay capabilities API to determine when and where to display the Apple Pay button, especially for non-Safari browsers.

It includes features like transaction pickers and query APIs for accessing financial data.
