MANILA, Philippines — Apple Pay, one of the world’s most widely used mobile payment services, officially launched in the Philippines on Tuesday, giving consumers another way to make contactless purchases as the country’s shift toward cashless payments gathers pace.
In separate announcements, Visa and Mastercard said eligible debit and credit cardholders can now add their cards to Apple Pay on iPhones, Apple Watches, iPads and Macs, allowing them to make purchases by double-clicking the side button and holding the device near a contactless payment terminal.
