Uploading the card itself only takes a few tens of seconds. On your iPhone or iPad, go to Settings -> Wallet and Apple Pay, where you just need to scan the card with the device's camera or enter the data from it manually. You then confirm the conditions, verify yourself and you're done. If you do this process on an iPhone, for example, you won't have to fill in everything again on all other Apple devices. All you have to do is verify yourself, most often by SMS or e-mail.
Apple Pay can be used for purchases in shops, restaurants, but also individual applications or some e-shops. Compatible devices include iPhone 6 and later, Apple Watch Series 1 and later, all iPads with Touch/Face ID, Mac models with Touch ID, and Mac models introduced in 2012 and later when paired with an Apple Watch or iPhone. Another condition that applies to the functionality of Apple Pay is that all devices must be secured, at least with a code, ideally also with biometric protection.
