Apple Pay Launches in Denmark, Finland, Sweden, and UAE

As promised during Apple's third quarter earnings (https://www.macrumors.com/2017/08/01/apple-pay-finland-sweden/) call back in August, Apple Pay today expanded to Finland (https://www.apple.com/fi/apple-pay/), Denmark (https://www.apple.com/dk/apple-pay/), Sweden (https://www.apple.com/se/apple-pay/), and United Arab Emirates (https://www.apple.com/ae/apple-pay/).





Debit and credit cards from participating banks can now be added to the Wallet app in each country and can be used to make purchases wherever NFC-based contactless payments are accepted. Apple Pay also works within apps and on the web in countries where Apple Pay is available.
