What is the minimum iOS version to add credit cards to ApplePay (via Passbook)?

Mine is 8.4 and I get the following error when adding a card:
"Software update required to add this card"

Now only can update to 9.3.2
Just do it!

Saw some of the participating merchants like M1 and Starhub. I assume this applies when you buy a phone but in this day, it is almost 100% that the price will exceed $100. How will this transaction be completed then?

Dear DBS/POSB... any idea if DBS Business Advance Visa Card will be made available for ApplePay? I managed to add the rest of my DBS cards but I'm unable to with this one... Thanks!

just wondering, does Singapore Public Transport accept contactless bank cards, or is it still the nets or some easylink or something.

Sadly hope, we use LTA introduced method call CEPAS that also uses NFC as well, if transport need to work with Apple Pay and Samsung Pay, LTA and those transport companies need to update their system, if banks introduce NFC on ATM, we can even withdraw using our phone by placing on the NFC reader instead of inserting the ATM card, as proven in Korea with Samsung Pay for transport and ATM withdraw.

Technically speaking, it's is highly possible to use Apple Pay or Samsung Pay for transport if our authority update their out dated system and allow us to allow EZ-Link card into wallet.

In future, want to go out, just bring our phone that all if transport, atm withdraw plus the current retail payment all integrate together! This is what I call cashless smart nation!

There a lot of possible to NFC technology, use digital smart lock and even can use it to lock and unlock our HDB doors, no more keys, which again Korea uses it years ago. (If you watch their drama and variety show, you will know what am I talking about), Korea is insanely high tech and everything is nothing but FAST FAST FAST!

As of now, Koreans only need two things when go out: Samsung phone and T-Money Card, no need house keys too as they all use digital lock.

My 3 cards: UOB, POSB, Stan Chart, all shows "Activating - your card is being activated"

Added these cards few hours ago. OTP Sms all came thru, no issues during registration process.

I even tried at NTUC just now. Phone no response when humping e pay wave machine


Just read the above tips to remove and register again. IT WORKS! Thanks resolved
