Apple Pay Support Expands in the United States and Other Countries
Apple Pay, the tap-to-pay service for retail and app purchases, has expanded the number of partner financial institutions here in the United States as well as five other countries. The expansion comes just a few weeks after Brazil iOS users were added to the countries that support the service.
The expansion adds banks here in the United States as well as Canada, China, Italy, Russia, and Spain. While the list of countries and banks supported by Apple Pay is substantially smaller than its main rival Google Pay, the expansion shows that Apple plans to continue to work with financial institutions and, in some cases, governments, for the service to work in other countries and with more banks.
