Customer service representatives for American Express have confirmed the company is making Apple Pay available to its customers in Canada starting tomorrow, iPhone in Canada reports. American Express will be the first supported Apple Pay partner in Canada as there is still no word when the country’s major banks will make the digital payment method available.
TD Canada Trust jumped the gun last month by publicly linking to a section of its website containing Apple Pay information, but has since offered no updates on when Apple Pay will be available to its customers. Sources have indicated that “dragging” negotiations with Canada’s banks resulted in Apple’s partnership with American Express, which is also set to lead Apple Pay’s push into Australia later this year.
