Removing a payment card from your iPhone does not automatically remove it from Apple Wallet on your other devices. You will need to repeat the process on each device where you want the card removed. If you sign out of iCloud on your iPhone, all credit and debit cards for Apple Pay are automatically removed from that device.
How to remove an ID card or driver's license
The process for removing an ID card, such as a driver's license, is similar. Open the Wallet app, tap the ID card, then tap the Info button. Scroll down and tap Remove Driver's License or Remove This ID, then confirm the removal.
What happens when you remove a pass or ticket
Removing a pass, such as a ticket or loyalty card, from your iPhone permanently removes it from Apple Wallet on your other devices. Unlike payment cards, which remain on other devices unless removed individually, passes are deleted everywhere at once.
How to remove cards from a lost or stolen iPhone
If your iPhone is lost or stolen, you can remotely remove cards from Apple Pay using the Find My app, iCloud.com, or by contacting your card issuers. To remove cards from a lost iPhone via another iPhone or iPad, go to the Settings app, tap your name, select the lost iPhone, then tap 'Remove Items' under Wallet & Apple Pay. To remove cards from a lost iPhone via a web browser, sign in to your Apple Account on iCloud.com, click 'Devices,' select the lost device, and in the Wallet & Apple Pay section, click 'Remove Items.' This is especially important if you have concerns about location tracking and NFC, as removing the cards prevents unauthorized use of your payment methods.
