A:

Exactly because its not available yet. Once Irish Banks and stores make it available Apple can then offer it on their devices. They can't make it available if it won't work with any cards or stores yet.

Its not really up to Apple. They've made the Framework available to everyone.

Its up to the Banks to use the framework and to have supported cards, and stores to have the NFC terminals to support it.

OK cool I thought it was decided by Apple on a particular date and then the banks support it once they know when it's released

thanks

Hi

This is a user-based technical support community.

I'm afraid that no-one here can tell you anything about Apple's unannounced plans (whether in relation to Apple Pay country launches, News app availability or Transit information availability for Maps).
