How to Turn off Ads in Apple Pay [Including Fandango Ads]
In this guide, we will show you the steps to turn off Fandango ads in Apple Pay. Many Chinese OEMs selling low-budget devices tend to incorporate ads in their devices, including in the system apps. After years of voicing their dissatisfaction, users have started to be content with it, considering it a price that they have to pay for purchasing a low-cost device.
However, a company like Apple, showing ads in their $1000+ phones, and that too in an important app like Apple Pay, well, things don’t really add up here. Unfortunately, this is what the reality is nowadays, with the Cupertino pushing ads like promoting Fandango movie tickets for Apple’s original film F1, and that too in the payment app of all places.

While we get that it’s an Apple movie, but shoving in ads to its users in their phones in a transaction app is not something that we would expect from this company. But after its new horrendous Glass theme, we should now start accepting their abysmal decision-making as the new normal.
\Anyways, coming back to the point, let’s now address the elephant in the room- can we turn off these Fandango ads [or any other ads for that matter] in Apple Pay? Well, for now, only a bunch of suyers would be able to do so, while others might be able to do so by September. Let me explain to you what I mean by this statement.
How to Turn off Ads in Apple Pay [Including Fandango Ads]

Up until this point, there wasn’t any option in the iOS to turn off ads in Apple Pay, but beginning with iOS 26, you can now get this job done with ease. However, the OS is currently in the beta stage, and only the beta testers can make full use of this feature. The stable version of the OS will be rolled out in September, and the rest of the users can then try out that feature.
However, if that’s quite a lengthy waiting time, then you can try out the beta build on your device right away and turn off the ads, but then you’ll have to deal with a buggy software release, so weigh the perks and drawbacks accordingly before welcoming the beta build of the OS. With that in mind, here’s how you turn off ads in Apple Pay in iOS 26:
- To begin with, launch the Apple Pay/Wallet app on your device.
- Then tap on the overflow icon at the top right and select Notifications.
- Finally, turn off the toggle next to Offers and Promotions. That’s it.
