Happy for the Germans if this turns out to be true, but I'm of course more interested in the other countries :). I'm hopping borders quite a lot, so besides Germany and my home country NL, Belgium would also be nice.

First pictures of German region adding a card is postet @n4p84

Later this evening/night with deutsche Bank debit mastercard

You very welcome ;-)

Simply change iPhone region to Germany, leave language at German, try to add a card to wallet er voila you get that screen.

No magic or ApplePay involved.
Sorry but this is absolutely no evident that ApplePay is to be announced soon for Germany.

With the right iOS/watchOS/macOS version you are already able to activate german credit cards and use some them - even in public. The banks are testing in a sandbox like environment - in latter phase with real cards even in the outside world in shops. You just do not push a button and everything works.Given the importance, that everything (near 100%) has to work properly you'll have a development cycle of 6-9 months .

Some banks came/come from nothing regarding Mobile Payment, some banks (e.g. Deutsche Bank) had experience regarding Mobile Payment.

So can we expect Apple Pay to start in Germany tomorrow or will we just get the announcment for a start later this year?

I would be surprised, if Apple Pay launches tomorrow. Given the fact that the banks need a week in advance to prepare the move from a testing environment to a production environment plus the preparation and test the workload of the activation servers, I see a launch at least a week away.

Let's sum up: we've had some concrete information here and announcements, that tomorrow is the date to look out for.

If there is nothing, then that throws us all back for a long time. I don't think Apple would leave an announcement out tomorrow if it's due to start in the next couple of months. Next date would be WWDC and a start date heading towards July.

I'll be tuning in and eagerly awaiting some official information.

I’d love to see ApplePay for Germany announced sooner rather than later but forgive my doubts if a fairly simple to reproduce screenshot is presented as hard evidence.
Simple as that.

They waited for Scandinavia two month. The announcement came during the Q2 earnings call. In the end, Apple delayed Apple Pay because of poor software quality and the release of the iPhone X (argument if you want to use Apple Pay, buy an iPhone X).

Thanks for the information. You and sunny2k1 did a great job.

In this case i would assume it's announced tomorrow and will launch together with the public release of iOS 11.3.

Argument? iPhone 6.

The situation to this case is quite difficult. Technically the Apple Pay Engine is ready and enable (this was already the case for iOS 11). Given that something emerged shortly before the iPhone X keynote, that Apple decided to delay the start (might be that a milestone partner (e.g. Deutsche Bank) wanted on short notice) and left it out and didn't launch it.

With iOS 11.2.5 they continued to develop on the engine and left it enabled on the device side (the server side thing is upon Apple). My guess would be a launch close to the announcement (probably next week).

Argument? iPhone 6.

Apple was more less occupied with the development of the software for the iPhone X. It looked to me that they want to couple the launch alongside the new premium handset. It's called marketing.

I hope, you are wrong. But if we look at Italy...

I don´t see hints in the Settings. Is everything server side?
