  • Apple Wallet is sending out push notifications advertising the new film F1 The Movie.
  • Users aren’t happy about their digital wallet serving them ads.
  • To avoid these ads, you’ll have to disable notifications or turn off seeing card benefits within Wallet during checkout.

Apple’s original film, F1 The Movie, is coming to theaters this week. If you have somehow missed all of the advertising for it, don’t worry. The tech giant is making sure you know all about it by pushing ads through Apple Wallet.

Users of Apple Wallet are reporting seeing an unusual push notification from the app. This alert informs iPhone owners that they can use a promotional code to get a $10 discount at Fandango if they buy two or more tickets for F1 The Movie. While that may be a tempting offer on its face, users aren’t particularly happy about how they’re learning about this deal.
