Apple Inc’s control over the iPhone is blocking fintech rivals from competing with its digital wallet, the UK’s antitrust watchdog said, proposing to force the Big Tech firm to open up its contactless technology.

The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA)’s proposal aims to make it easier for rivals to access Apple’s contactless technology at "substantially lower fees.” The proposal is part of an investigation after the regulator designated Apple as being dominant in the mobile ecosystem sector, and raised concerns over high fees and restrictions on firms to access the iPhone’s contactless technology.
