Apple Pay shows an invalid address

I’ve used Apple Pay online for years, today it’s decided to keep saying invalid address.

Ive checked the 3 places as I’ve seen on other posts, removed all addresses and cards and readded them and it still isn’t working.

Please follow this path,


iPhone > Settings > Wallet & Apple Pay > Apple Pay Defaults > Shipping Address > Edit > delete old addresses

If you have multiple devices you use online with Apple Pay, it may take several hours for the address to sync and update.


I hope you have a great week!

In payment and shipping when the shipping address shows, it shows as GBR, if I go to edit address it shows as United Kingdom and this is not editable.

when selecting address within payment the address shows as united kingdom, could this be the problem?

This is unable to be changed to GBR so that they match

Payment and Shipping is in your Apple Account, and is not used with Apple Pay.


The address in your Apple Account is used when you purchase products and services from Apple, and only Apple.


If an address shows as invalid in your Apple Account, Apple generally checks against the official address used by your country’s national postal service.

Hi, what device and OS version are you using?

iPhone 16 and 27.2
