Apple Pay launch in India: Official communication and UPI support

Hi everyone,

I’ve seen recent reports that Apple Pay may launch in India soon, reportedly starting with Axis Bank credit cards.

Has anyone received any official communication from Apple or Axis Bank regarding Apple Pay support in India?

Also, does anyone know whether UPI will be supported at launch, or will it initially be limited to card-based contactless payments?


Would love to hear if anyone has any confirmed information. Thanks! 🇮🇳
