Update:

Appel Pay is a service launched by Apple, through which we can add debit cards or credit cards a virtual wallet, through the application: Wallet.
After the cards are added to the account Apple Pay, we have the possibility to make online payments or payments in the store networks that accept this service Apple. Of course, within the balance available in the bank account attached to the card.


Once it's released iOS 11.2 in the final version, through the application Messages they will be able to send and receive money directly from your iPhone or iPad. The condition is that the person we want to send or ask for money to have iOS 11.2 and a card / bank account added Apple Pay. This service will be called Apple Pay Cash and is currently in the "preview" state of the version 11.2 iOS Beta 2.

We'll explain and explain what you need to do to be able to send and receive money through iMessages, in a future tutorial.

One problem that many people hit is that I can't add a credit card or debit card in Apple Pay / Wallet when initializing iOS on iPhone or iPad.
"Yet Issuer Does Not Offer Your Support for This Card".

In most cases, this problem is not due to a limitation of the bank account or a lack of funds on the account. Although Apple urges all users to use Apple Pay, access to this service is available for a limited number of countries and banks in these countries. In Europe, Apple Pay can only be used if you are a customer of banks that have partnered with Apple, from: Denmark, Guernsey, Finland, Germany, Italy, Spain, Russia, Jersey, San Marino, Ireland, Sweden, Switzerland, Vatican and Great Britain (UK).
Romania, Hungary, Bulgaria, the countries of the former Yugoslavia and many others in Europe, have to wait until Apple Pay it can be used by iPhone and iPad owners. The complete and updated list of banks in Europe participating in Apple Pay, you can find it on the page official a Apple.
Be careful, however, that there are also banks that accept Apple Pay, the service is only available for certain types of Mastercard, Visa or Restaurant Ticket cards.

If you have an account at one of the banks that accept Apple Pay, you can't add your card to your iPhone or iPad, the first step would be to contact the bank. There are banks that, as a security measure, limit access to certain services until the customer's request.

I am happy to share my experiences in the field of computers, mobile phones and operating systems, to develop web projects and to bring the most useful tutorials and advice. I like to "play" on the iPhone, MacBook Pro, iPad, AirPort Extreme and on operating systems macOS, iOS, Android and Windows.
