Today is the day. The long-awaited Sparkasse Girocard support for Apple Pay has now been officially launched. But there are restrictions.

Already last year, customers of the Sparkasse promised, to support the Girocard in Apple Pay in addition to credit cards. The plastic can now officially be stored in the iPhone wallet - but there are restrictions. Anyone who wants to use the Girocard in Apple Pay will certainly be happy, but paying abroad or on the web or in an app is not possible for the time being. This is what the usage instructions say:

The digital Sparkasse card cannot generally be used abroad. Payments in an app or in online shopping via the Safari browser are initially only possible with digital credit and prepaid cards if the Apple Pay symbol is displayed as an available payment option.
