I have always had the belief that one of the advantages of paying with Apple Pay is that the merchant never gets to know your Visa number - instead a different Apple supplied number is fed to them. Did I get that wrong? Today while booking travel arrangements I used the touch sensor on my fancy new keyboard with my new Mac Mini to pay with Apple Pay. When I got the confirmation of the transaction by email it showed the last 4 digits of my actual Visa card. Of course only the last 4 digits isn't too bad if that's all they got but it is 4 digits more than I understood they would get. Perhaps they know the whole number and only showed the last 4 digits in the email for "security" reasons!
