Bank of Ireland, Isracard Group add Apple Pay support — Apple World Today

Despite Apple Pay coming to Ireland in 2017 — making it just the 14th country to adopt the service — one of the nation’s largest banks has only now announced support. The financial organization has now launched support alongside a newly updated Bank of Ireland iOS app.

Also, Apple has signed an agreement with one of Israel’s leading credit card companies, Isracard Group, to bring Apple Pay to the country by the end of the year, according to Ynet — as translated by MacRumors. Competing card companies Max and ICC are also expected to add support soon for Apple’s mobile payment service.
