User level: Level 1 (4 points)Does anyone have any reliable update on when Apple Pay is expected to officially launch in Pakistan? 🇵🇰🍎
A lot of us iPhone users have been waiting for Apple Pay support for years. Have there been any recent updates from Apple, Pakistani banks, or payment networks regarding a possible launch date?
Would love to hear if anyone has credible information or recent developments.

Apple has not provided any date for support in Pakistan. That is the only place you would see a credible report, anything else is pure speculation. You can send feedback to Apple here:

Thanks for the clarification. I understand that Apple hasn’t announced an official launch date for Apple Pay in Pakistan yet. Hopefully, Apple will consider expanding support here soon, as contactless and digital payments are growing rapidly in Pakistan. I’ll also submit feedback through Apple’s official channel.

Yeo, hopefully it will be soon. Not only does it take the infrastructure for contactless payments, it also requires bank support in your region for Apple Pay pay transactions as they are the ones that provide the unique tokens to your iPhone when their card is added to the Wallet app and the PNO's (VISA, Mastercard, etc) cooperation with those banks to process the transactions. It is much more than Apple just flipping a switch for everything to work.
