Apple today announced that Apple Pay is “coming soon” in Saudi Arabia, without providing a more specific timeframe.
Saudi Arabia would become at least the 30th region where Apple Pay is officially available. Apple Pay is also set to launch in Germany later this year, as Apple CEO Tim Cook confirmed on the company’s earnings call in late July.
The Saudi Payments Network (MADA), a major payment system in Saudi Arabia, also confirmed that it will soon introduce support for Apple Pay.
