You need to open the Wallet app and look for the card in Previous Card section. Double clicking the side button does not open the Wallet app. When you double click the Wallet app you’re activating Apple Pay, preparing your default card and authenticating the transaction using Face ID.


The Wallet app looks like the image below.
