Apple Pay is preparing to launch in India by 2026, pending regulatory approvals and partnerships with Mastercard and Visa. The initial rollout will focus on NFC-based contactless payments, allowing users to store Indian cards in Apple Wallet. The move aims to capitalize on India’s growing iPhone user base, but faces stiff competition from UPI and incumbents like PhonePe.
