Apple Launches Tap to Pay on iPhone in Malaysia
Apr 22, 2026
Apple has announced the availability of Tap to Pay on iPhone in Malaysia, allowing independent sellers, small merchants, and large retailers in the region to use iPhones as a payment terminal.
Tap to Pay allows iPhones to accept payments via Apple Pay, contactless credit and debit cards,
and other digital wallets. All transactions are encrypted, and Apple has no information about what is purchased or the person who made the purchase.
No additional hardware or credit card machine is required to use Tap to Pay on iPhone. The feature uses NFC technology to securely authenticate the contactless payments, plus the feature also supports PIN entry, which includes accessibility options.
Starting today, ADAPTIS, Fiuu, HitPay, Stripe, and Zoho are the first payment platforms in Malaysia to bring Tap to Pay on iPhone to its merchants. Tap to Pay on iPhone will also be coming soon for checkout at Apple The Exchange TRX. Supported contactless debit and credit cards include American Express, JCB, Mastercard, MyDebit, UnionPay, and Visa.
Tap to Pay on iPhone launched in February 2022 in the United States, and since then, Apple has expanded it to more than 50 countries and regions around the world.Tags: Malaysia, Tap to Pay on iPhoneThis article, "Apple Launches Tap to Pay on iPhone in Malaysia" first appeared on MacRumors.comDiscuss this article in our forums
