Whai muri i te whakaaetanga ki ngā mana whakahaere o Ūropi i te tīmatanga o tēnei raumati, ka tukuna e Apple te urunga atu ki ngā kaiwhakawhanake tuatoru mō ngā whakawhitiwhitinga tata-marae (NFC) e pā ana ki ngā kaiwhakarato putea pūkoro.

Mai i tōna whakarewatanga i te tau 2014, kua taea e Apple Pay me ngā taupānga Apple e pā ana te uru atu ki te wāhanga haumaru. Ina tukuna te iOS 18 i ngā marama e haere ake nei, ka taea e ngā kaiwhakawhanake i Ahitereiria, Brazil, Canada, Japan, Aotearoa, United States me te United Kingdom te whakamahi i ngā API me ētahi atu wāhi ka whai ake.

"Mā te whakamahi i ngā API NFC me SE (Secure Element) hou, ka taea e ngā kaiwhakawhanake te tuku i ngā tauwhitinga kore pa i roto i te taupānga mō ngā utu i roto i te toa, ngā kī waka, ngā waka kawe ā-rohe, ngā tohu kamupene, ngā tohu tuakiri ākonga, ngā kī kāinga, ngā kī hōtēra, ngā kāri pono me ngā kāri utu a te kaihokohoko, me ngā tīkiti huihuinga, me ngā tohu tuakiri kāwanatanga ka tautokona ā muri ake nei," te kī a Apple.

I hangaia te otinga hou hei whakarato i tētahi huarahi haumaru ki ngā kaiwhakawhanake ki te tuku i ngā tauwhitinga kore-pā NFC mai i roto i ā rātou taupānga iOS. Ka whai kōwhiringa ngā kaiwhakamahi ki te whakatuwhera tika i te taupānga, ki te whakatakoto rānei i te taupānga hei taupānga kore-pā taunoa i roto i ngā Tautuhinga iOS, me te pāwhiri rua i te pātene taha i runga i te iPhone hei tīmata i tētahi tauwhitinga.
