Apple Pay Will Reportedly Launch in Germany This Week, Possibly Tomorrow

Apple Pay will make its long-awaited debut in Germany this week, according to German blog Macerkopf (https://www.macerkopf.de/2018/12/10/apple-pay-startet-vermutlich-diese-woche-in-deutschland-schon-morgen/).

The report, citing unnamed sources within German banking circles, says the launch will likely occur on Tuesday with mobile bank N26 and Comdirect expected to be among the initial participating issuers in the country.





Apple CEO Tim Cook confirmed that Apple Pay would launch in Germany by the end of this year (https://www.macrumors.com/2018/07/31/apple-pay-expanding-to-germany/) back in July. Apple Pay is also listed as "coming soon" (https://www.macrumors.com/2018/11/05/apple-pay-rolls-out-in-germany/) on Apple's website in Germany, so a launch is to be expected imminently.





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





Apple Pay expanded to Belgium and Kazakhstan (https://www.macrumors.com/2018/11/28/apple-pay-launches-belgium-kazakhstan/) in late November.
