TLDR
Trust Wallet enabled Apple Pay for buying XRP.
- Trust Wallet added Apple Pay so users can purchase crypto, including XRP, directly in app in 45+ countries per a report.
- Coverage cited includes 40+ countries and support for XRP among listed assets per a roundup.
- This is a fiat on ramp inside the wallet, not Apple Pay natively settling XRP at merchants.
Deep Dive
1. The Wallet
The wallet is Trust Wallet. It announced Apple Pay integration to let users fund purchases of supported cryptocurrencies directly inside the app, which includes XRP among the assets covered in recent summaries. See the Apple Pay integration note from a crypto outlet and the XRP inclusion in a separate roundup for context (report, roundup).
If you use Trust Wallet, you can select Apple Pay as the payment method to buy XRP, subject to regional availability and provider terms.
2. Availability And Assets
Coverage cited is broad. One roundup notes Apple Pay and Google Pay access in 40+ countries via Trust Wallet and lists XRP among supported assets, alongside BTC, ETH, BNB, SOL, USDC and USDT, with a minimum purchase size of about 20 USD in many regions (roundup).
Availability is wide but not universal, and specific limits vary by country and payment processor. Always check your local options inside the app before planning a purchase.
3. Why It Matters
Apple Pay inside a wallet reduces friction for fiat to crypto onboarding. Practically, this means faster XRP acquisition using a familiar checkout experience, but it does not imply that merchants accept XRP directly through Apple Pay. The integration improves the on ramp, not point of sale settlement (report).
Treat this as a convenience and access upgrade for funding XRP purchases. Fees, KYC checks, and limits may still apply via the on ramp partner.
Conclusion
Trust Wallet is the wallet that enabled Apple Pay purchases of XRP. The integration broadens access in many regions and lowers friction to acquire XRP, but it remains a wallet on ramp feature rather than Apple Pay natively supporting XRP payments at checkout.
