Same with Canada. Apple Pay having "lackluster adoption" might be one of those uniquely American issues.

- rsynnott 3y agoAs I understand it, the US didn’t really have contactless payment pre-apple/google pay _at all_, so it’d naturally be a harder transition than in places where it was already rolled out. Even today, you’ll occasionally see terminals in Europe which don’t actually support Apple Pay as such; it’ll work, because it acts like a normal contactless card, but only up to 50 euro, because the terminal doesn’t know it’s authenticated.
- c-hendricks 3y agoSounds like you're aware of why it's a uniquely American thing. You forgot to mention companies that did accept it but stopped after they implemented their own payment system (which again only applies to American branches of their stores).
