Apple expands the number of banks that support Apple Pay

We have not reported on the arrival of Apple Pay in new countries for several months, but it does not mean that Apple is not working on expanding the number of supported banks and entities. Once again, it has been the United States that enjoys an expansion in the number of compatible banks and entities, as well as Canada that has seen how the number of banks is expanded by adding just one new one: Coast Capital Savings Credit Union. In the United States, the number of banks and credit institutions has been expanded by 16, mainly banks and regional credit institutions.

New American banks and credit institutions compatible with Apple Pay

  • Andover Bank
  • Atlanta Postal Credit Union
  • Bank of Blue Valley
  • BNY Mellon
  • Bridge Credit Union
  • Federal Credit Union
  • First Bristol Federal Credit Union
  • First Federal S&L of Delta
  • Northfield Savings Bank
  • Peoples State Bank of Plainview
  • Riverview Credit Union
  • RSI Bank
  • TBA Credit Union
  • The First
  • Western Connecticut Federal Credit Union
  • Wrentham Cooperative Bank

Apple is working on offering more features with this payment method. In the last keynote we could see how Apple wants to use this platform to send money among our friends through the Messages application. Another function is called Apple Pay Cash, a kind of wallet that We will be able to load through the money that we receive from our friends through Messages. All of these features should make their debut with the release of the final version of iOS 11.1, which is currently in the first beta.

Since its launch in the United States, Apple Pay has expanded to Canada, France, Russia, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Australia, mainland China, Hong Kong, Italy, New Zealand, Singapore, Japan, Spain, Ireland, and Taiwan. Everything seems to indicate that Germany will be the next country to receive this form of payments.
