This morning, Apple announced that Tap to Pay on iPhone is rolling out to more markets, with five new countries across Europe.

Tap to Pay on the iPhone is the feature where businesses can use an iPhone as a contactless terminal to accept payments. The customer simply holds their contactless card, or iPhone or Watch, near the merchant’s iPhone to complete the payment using NFC chip inside the iPhone.
