Tap to Pay on iPhone announced, coming to the US later this year

08 February 2022
It will support Apple Pay on both iPhone and Apple Watch as well as contactless credit and debit cards and other digital wallets.

Sort by:

Android can do this, too, they just need to creat an app for it. You already add credit cards to google pay by tapping them on your phone, no reason to not use it for POS.

              UPI is the best cashless transaction service in my opinion.
              Its Fast, convenient & Secure.
              India has highest share in Global Digital Transaction & its credit goes to UPI system.

              Just by scanning a QR code/Mobile number/Unique UPI ID of the beneficiary,Anyone,anywhere can send money to other person within 1 minute.

              I wonder why other countries haven't adopted this brilliant system.
              But its "America-The empire of big tech" & they don't like such ideas.
