Im from Europe and i will not use third party apps for anything. And i think that 99% of the Apple users dont really care abot third party apps stores etc. We chose IOS cuz its closed.

so instead of having place to secure your cards, each bank/creditor will want consumers to have their specific wallet... how awesome!!
Now which EU tech company will this affect the most?

I will still continue to use Apple Pay. I have 0 trust in some third party app that will appear suddenly on App Store, made by some "company" with 3 employees in some apartment, lol.
But yeah sure, let's open everything and make App Store as shady as Play Store.
Being 100% open is not as good as people think it is. From all the things in there, maybe 50% are bad apps or apps that steal your data. You need to swim in all that sh*t to find the trusty and good apps.
I rather have my data on Apple servers than on some Russian/Chinese kid basement, who happened to create some "quality free" app, lol.

And here in India you can’t use tap and pay at all with apple devices or apple wallet.

This is the only thing that I agree. But, Apple should open it to all not just EU.
