Welcome to the world of Apple Pay, the contactless payment system through the mobile that Apple has made available to a small part of its users. By small we mean users from outside the United States, because in the American country they offer a number of credit institutions that escape our hands. Meanwhile, in Spain they continue to maintain preference in Carrefour Pass and Banco Santander as the only suppliers.
In addition, we did not tell you the results of Apple Pay according to the latest information that the Cupertino company has shared, something not too common within its usual aura of secrecy. Due, Apple Pay has grown no less than 450% during 2016.
It is because of that There are not a few Apple users in Spain who are eager for Apple Pay to open its doors to other financial institutions. Meanwhile, the United States of America continues to add new partners to mobile payments.
In the case of our country, banks are still involved in launching their money sending and receiving systems like Bizum, which have not just gone anywhere. We hope that during the WWDC of this 2017, the same place where Tim Cook spoke last year about Apple Pay in Spain, they will leave us relevant information about it again, Do you use Apple Pay or do you prefer other payment methods?

I use pay with the Carrefour pass card and I am delighted for many reasons but the truth is that I would like to use it with the card of an entity that is not compatible at the moment. 6 months after arriving in Spain we are like the first day
I do not use it because with my bank Ing Direct still cannot be used. In the moment that it is possible (if the day comes) I will use it
Here is a list of the new banks that offer apple pay in Spain:
.
I use it more every day and it seems FANTASTIC! SUPER PRACTICAL, COMFORTABLE AND SAFE. I am looking forward to it continuing to grow in Spain and to reach other banks, including ING.
