What Is Coming With iOS 11.2?
Apple Pay
While Apple has released multiple updates to iOS 11, the one feature that still has not been released is Apple Pay Cash. The iOS 11.2 beta shows Apple Pay Cash in the Messages app, which means it’ll most likely release with the update in its official public release.
The new feature will allow iOS users to make person-to-person transactions when using iMessage. Funds in the Apple Pay Cash card can be used to make purchases in stores or online and transfer funds to their bank account. A three percent fee is applied when sending money through a credit card, while transferring cash from a debit card is free.
