Following its expansion to France earlier today, Apple Pay has now made its way to Hong Kong, supporting Visa, MasterCard and American Express.

The following banks support Apple Pay in Hong Kong right now:

  • American Express
  • Bank of China (Hong Kong)
  • DBS
  • Hang Seng Bank
  • HSBC
  • Standard Chartered
Financial institutions coming soon, according to Apple, include Bank of East Asia (BEA) and HKT Payment Limited’s mobile wallet platform, Tap&Go.
Hopefully Octopus Cards will soon support Apple Pay, in the future. I’m also surprised Citibank isn’t mentioned anywhere, yet.

That would be great for international travel but I doubt it..they still mail out statements with no option to get a PDF copy.
