Apple has decided to open its tap-and-go mobile payments system to rivals in Europe, which will give iPhone users more choices beyond Apple Pay, such as Samsung Wallet and Google Pay, according to EU antitrust regulator, Thursday (local time).

The European Commission said that it accepted Apple’s offer to open its tap-and-go technology, called near-field communication, or NFC, to 토토 rivals to end its antitrust investigation against Apple. The probe began in 2020 and could have resulted in a heavy fine.

NFC allows users to use contactless payments with mobile wallets.

The commission said the offer made by the U.S. tech giant would be valid for 10 years.

“From now on, Apple can no longer use its control over the iPhone ecosystem to keep other mobile wallets out of the market,” EU antitrust body chief Margrethe Vestager said.
