The National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) has said that the launch of the Apple Pay payment service in Ukraine will depend on agreements reached between interested issuers of payment cards, international card payment systems and Apple Pay, FinClub has reported, referring to the NBU’s press service.
At the same time, the branch network for this service will depend on the number of banks owning payment terminals with contactless payment technology, which will be ready to cooperate with Apple Pay. According to the NBU, already 70 percent of the country’s trade terminals support contactless payment technology.
