The reports predicted that Apple Pay would arrive in China on February 18, and nothing is further from reality, as I write these words very early in the morning I realize that at 01:00 Spanish time on February 18 the arrival of Apple Pay in China was made official. The Cupertino company has already announced that the citizens of the Asian giant will be able to make use of this fantastic contactless payment system Through the iPhone, meanwhile in the rest of Europe we still have to wait for their fierce commission fight with the banks to end.
This announcement occurred on Apple's developer website. Apple announced last year that it was in negotiations with China Union to bring Apple Pay to users in China during 2016, and so much that they have been in a hurry, we have only been a month and a half of a year and it is here. In the meantime, He also promised that Apple Pay would arrive in Spain during 2016 and we still do not know anything, while negotiations with French banks for the landing of Apple Pay begin to filter there as well.
Apple Pay already supports China, providing an easy, secure, and private way to pay using China UnionPay credit and debit cards. Apple Pay allows users to make purchases of goods and services within the pon application without the need to include irrelevant information.
Ti mCook has opened up about Apple's growth in China, indeed It is going from strength to strength in the Asian giant, where iPhones are literally sold "like pipes." Meanwhile, in Spain we are still a second market for Apple, so we still have to wait to pay with our iPhone despite the fact that in 2014 they launched the first device compatible with Apple Pay NFC technology.
