PayPal starts rolling out direct tap-to-pay support for iPhone users in Europe

<div class="feat-image">(https://9to5mac.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2025/05/paypal-tap-to-pay.jpg?quality=82&strip=all&w=1600)</div><p>Since the DMA took effect in Europe, Apple has been forced to loosen its grip by allowing third-party access to its platforms, devices, and operating systems.</p>



<p>One key example is the iPhone’s NFC chip, which was once locked to Apple Pay but is now required to support third-party payment providers. It took longer than one would have guessed, but now PayPal is taking advantage of this wider access.</p>
