Apple Pay Goes Live in the Czech Republic

Apple Pay is rolling out to users in the Czech Republic, according to multiple reports from tipsters and posts across social media this morning. 

Across the country, users have so far reported successfully adding cards to their mobile wallets from Air Bank, MONETA Money Bank, Ceska sporitelna, and payments company Twisto. When Apple Pay was rumored to be coming to the country in late February, support for the country’s two largest banks Česká spořitelna and Komerční banka was mooted, so hopefully they’ll also be added to the “active” list soon. 

Google Pay, a similar product, was already available in this country for users of phones and watches using the Android operating system.

Apple Pay has been gradually expanding across Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. The service launched in Belgium and Kazakhstan in November and made its long-awaited debut in Germany the following month. 

Apple Pay first launched in the United States in October 2014, and has since expanded to many other countries, such as the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, China, Singapore, Switzerland, France, Japan, Spain, Italy, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Russia, New Zealand, Brazil, Poland, Ireland, and Ukraine.
