Last week I told you that Apple Pay will be launched in France this year, but an internal document of those from Mastercard suggests the fact that in reality those from Cupertino intend to expand the availability of the service in many more countries than that.
With the help of the Mastercard company Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), could launch Apple Pay in Japan, Brazil, Singapore and Hong Kong this year, Canada and France already being included in the list of countries where the service will be available, Germany being strangely absent.
In Canada, Apple Pay works with the support of only one bank, but Mastercard will support the service in 2016, and apart from the above countries, Apple could also offer Apple Pay in many other countries thanks to the partnership with the famous payment processor using card- hate.
If the document is true, then Apple Pay will be available in 11 countries by the end of this year, and if you were to ask me, I think that France will not be the only country where the mobile payment system will be offered starting this year by those from Apple.
Apple has great difficulties in expanding the availability of Apple Pay in various regions of the globe mainly due to the fact that the banks do not agree with the commission percentage that Apple wants to offer for them.
