Apple Pay launches in Norway

Friday 22 June 2018 11:43 CET | News

Apple Pay has launched in Norway for customers of Nordea and Santander Bank, Norway being the last among the Nordic countries to implement the service.

Users will be able to make payments at Apple Pay-compatible payment terminals and also online and app payments.

In order to pay, users need an iPhone SE or iPhone 6 or later model, iPad or Apple Watch. They have to register their bank card (with available balance) to the Wallet app that is pre-installed on Apples devices. Currently, only Nordea and Santander customers can use Apple Pay.

When paying in-store, users only need to hold their device against the payment terminal while identifying themselves either with a fingerprint (Touch ID) or a PIN code. Apple Pay will be available at all contactless, NFC-enabled devices that accept Visa-cards.

Apple Pay launched in Finland, Sweden and Denmark in October 2017 – also to a limited group of bank customers.
