SINGAPORE – Apple has announced that Tap to Pay on iPhone is now available in Singapore, allowing merchants to use the iPhone as a contactless payment terminal.

In a statement on Dec 2, Apple said that the new function comes in collaboration with payment platforms, app developers, and payment networks.

Businesses of any size will be able to accept quick payments from contactless credit and debit cards, Apple Pay, and other digital wallets using only their iPhone and a partner-enabled iOS app, it said.

“With Tap to Pay on iPhone, merchants can accept contactless payments through a supporting iOS app on an iPhone Xs or later running the latest iOS version,” it added.

Payment platforms Adyen, Fiuu, HitPay, Revolut, Stripe, and Zoho are the first to offer Tap to Pay on iPhone. Grab will join this line-up in early 2026, Apple said.

The Tap to Pay function supports Apple Pay and other digital wallets, and contactless credit and debit cards from leading payment including American Express, JCB, Mastercard, UnionPay, and Visa.
