MacRumors<\/em> contributor Steve Moser found that Apple Pay works with Edge and Chrome in the iOS 16 beta 4, and shared his findings on Twitter<\/a>.<\/p>\n Moser\u2019s screenshots show a \u201cContinue with Apple Pay\u201d option on Apple\u2019s checkout page when using Edge. Apple Pay only works in Safari on iOS 15 and older, preventing you from using any other browser if you want to pay with Apple Pay when shopping on the web.<\/p>\n On the latest iOS 16 beta Apple Pay works in Edge, Chrome and I assume any third party browser. On iOS 15 Apple Pay only works in Safari. pic.twitter.com\/x7zV5xCuiC<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Steve Moser (@SteveMoser) July 30, 2022<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n Although Moser doesn\u2019t mention Firefox, other users noticed Apple Pay compatibility with the browser before<\/em> the release of iOS 16 beta 4. A post on Reddit<\/a> from earlier this month shows an option to pay with Apple Pay in iOS 16 beta 2 while using Firefox. Another user on iOS 16 beta 3<\/a> says they have the option to pay with Apple Pay on Firefox as well. We\u2019re not certain of when Apple started expanding support for Apple Pay, and to which browsers. Apple didn\u2019t immediately respond to The Verge<\/em>\u2019s request for comment.<\/p>\n Apple Pay still isn\u2019t available in the latest macOS beta, however. As Moser notes, this is likely because Chrome, Edge, and Firefox all use Safari\u2019s rendering engine, WebKit, on iOS due to Apple\u2019s requirements. Third-party browsers are free to use their own engines on macOS, so we might not see support for Apple Pay outside of Safari on Macs anytime soon.<\/p>\n But Apple\u2019s change of heart on iOS might be related to the European Union\u2019s plans to crack down on big tech\u2019s anticompetitive practices<\/a>. The Digital Markets Act is set to go into effect in spring 2023<\/a>, and imposes a set of rules on large companies, like Apple, Meta, and Google, to promote competition with smaller entities. A draft of the new legislation obtained by The Register<\/em><\/a> specifically goes after companies that force app developers to use their own rendering engine. While this change could be an indication that Apple\u2019s at least attempting to bend to the upcoming rules, the company isn\u2019t likely to go down without a fight \u2014 it incurred millions in fees<\/a> before complying with the Netherlands\u2019 rules<\/a> on in-app payment systems in Dutch dating apps.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
