The original specification and the Chrome implementation aren't restricted to a single payments app, such as Apple Pay: > The browser then presents the payments UI to the user, who selects a payment method and authorizes the transaction. A payment method can be as straightforward as a credit card that is already stored by the browser, or as esoteric as third-party application written specifically to deliver payments to the site. So if you have the PayPal app installed, you should be able to choose it as the payment method and so on. My question is if the Apple implementation on Safari restricts the payment methods only to Apple Pay, bocking any other payment services or apps.

The ability for apps like PayPal to handle payments in the browser requires the Payment Handler API [1]. We aren't announcing support for Payment Handler here, just Payment Request. It's not like we're actively restricting or blocking these apps, we just haven't written the code to do this. [1] https://w3c.github.io/payment-handler/ https://w3c.github.io/payment-handler/
