Rumor: Mexico may be added to Apple Pay in the near future

It looks like Apple Pay may be en route to Mexico.

Per a number of user reports via Twitter, it’s already possible to add cards from Mexican banks to the Wallet app by changing the iPhone region to another one that already supports Apple Pay. The cards are successfully added, but it’s not yet possible to verify them with the bank since Apple has not yet officially launched Apple Pay there.

This looks like it may just be a matter of time before Apple officially brings certain Mexican banks online. If so, Mexico would be the second country in Latin America to offer Apple Pay support, Brazil having been added in 2018.

Following up on this, a number of Mexican banks were contacted, but representatives said there were no official plans to come on board to Apple Pay.

Still, the signs are there.

If you’re in Mexico and see any evidence of this, please let us know about your experience in the comments.
