Q: Can i use a Visa Electron with Apple Pay?
I live in France and Apple Pay has just been announced yesterday in my country. I have a Visa Electron card, will i be able to use it with Apple Pay? Can you use those in the countries where Apple Pay is already there?
Thank you.

Hi
In order to be able to set up and use Apple Pay when it becomes available in France, you will need a supported card from a participating issuer.
Whether or not any given payment card is supported will be a matter for the issuing bank to decide and advise. Apple does not publish a list of supported cards either for upcoming country launches or for countries where Apple Pay is presently available.
You will therefore need to check with your card issuer in due course.
