Norwegian payment app Vipps takes on Apple, wants EU antitrust action
BRUSSELS: Norwegian mobile payment app Vipps wants European Union (EU) antitrust regulators to force Apple to allow access to its tap and go technology without any restrictions so that other companies can be more competitive, Vipps Chief Executive Rune Garborg said.
Garborg’s comments came a day after Apple made a last ditch bid to convince EU antitrust regulators that it does not block rivals’ access to its technology used for mobile wallets at a closed hearing. Vipps was a third party at the hearing.
