Apple looking for London-based ‘Apple Pay Intern’ to help expand service into Europe

apple-pay

A new UK job listing posted on Apple’s website and uncovered by iClarified indicates that the company is planning to expands its payment service into Europe and elsewhere. It shouldn’t come as a big surprise that Apple wants to put its iPhone 6-based payment system into as many hands worldwide as possible, but this is one of the first indications of a move in that direction.

The intern will be part of a new London-based team that will help roll the product out across Europe, the Middle East, India, and Asia. Specifically the intern will be responsible for handling contracts and non-disclosure agreements between Apple and third-parties like banks and retailers.

The full job listing is below:

    “Uncovered” sounds like they did some real deep investigative journalism. All the did was go to Apple’s job listing site.

    This is not news… they hired senior payments executives from Visa Europe months ago to lead the effort.

  4. Really looking forward to being able to use Apple Pay in the UK
