Tim Cook: Apple Pay to Soon Launch in Norway, Poland, and Ukraine

During this afternoon’s Apple earnings call, company CEO Tim Cook mentioned Apple Pay will be expanding to Norway, Poland, and the Ukraine in the near future.

Cook didn’t furnish specifics about launch dates for the mobile payments system in each country, saying only that it would be coming to the countries “in the next several months.”

Cook said Apple Pay continues to see strong growth, and that the service set a new all-time quarterly revenue record. Activations have doubled year-over-year, while transactions have tripled.

Cook also said Apple’s payments solution is the most successful mobile transit payments system in Tokyo.

Adding Your Credit or Debit Card to Apple Pay

Once Apple Pay arrives in their country, users can add their credit or debit card to the service by doing the following:

• iPhone users running iOS 11 can go to the Wallet app and tap the “+” icon in the upper right-hand corner to begin, and then just follow the prompts. Users of iPads with Touch ID can add a card to the service to use in apps by going into “Settings” -> “Wallet & Apple Pay” to add a card there.
• Apple Watch users will need to enter the Watch app on their iPhone, Tap on the “Wallet & Apple Pay” option, and then tap the “Add Credit or Debit Card” option.
