Apple has today enabled iTunes carrier billing in Austria for Drei customers, Italy for Three customers, and Singapore for M1 Limited customers, expanding its reach. The system is currently available in Belgium, Germany, Japan, Norway, Russia, Switzerland, Taiwan, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.
The payment method allows customers to purchase iTunes, App Store, iBooks, and Apple Music subscriptions without the need of a credit or debit card. This method allows customers to pay off the debt at the end of the month via their mobile phone carrier.
This may seem like a weird payment method in the United States, as most customers will have a debit or credit card, but this method allows customers to pay via cash in some countries, eliminating credit or debit cards, or the need of a bank, really.
