Apple Pay is now available to Mastercard cardholders, according to a report by Unbox PH. The report, aggregated by Google News — retail Philippines, says users can now link their Mastercard credit and debit cards to their Apple Wallet for contactless payments.
The expansion gives Mastercard holders access to Apple Pay's secure and convenient payment method. In the Philippines, where mobile wallet usage is rising, this integration allows users to pay at stores, in apps, and on the web wherever Apple Pay is accepted.
This move reflects the ongoing shift toward digital payments and the growing interoperability between global payment networks and mobile wallets. Mastercard cardholders can now enjoy the same tap-and-go experience previously limited to other card networks.
