Apple Pay comes to Singapore today

Apple Pay is now available in Singapore, marking the mobile-payment service’s expansion into its sixth country and its second in Asia. Singapore residents are only able to use American Express cards right now, but Apple says support for credit and debit cards from Visa and banks including DBS, UOB, and Standard Chartered will follow in the “coming months.”

Apple and American Express previously launched Apple Pay in Australia and Canada, and will also bring Apple Pay to Spain and Hong Kong at some point this year; it’s not clear whether other banks in those regions are going to follow suit. The majority of customers in the US, UK, and China are now able to use Apple Pay with their financial institutions of choice.
