Apple, Mastercard and Visa's antitrust lawsuit over payments has been dismissed
- Apple, Mastercard, and Visa dodge antitrust lawsuit over payments regarding alleged collusion to maintain the current status quo in point-of-sale-payment card services.
- The lawsuit filed by beverage retailer Mirage Wine and Spirits claimed Apple was accepting bribes to limit the development of its payment network and keep iPhone NFC-based 'tap to pay' functionality exclusive.

- Although the claims suggested payment arrangements between Apple and the card networks, the judge deemed them circumstantial. Apple has, however, opened up NFC tap-to-pay transactions to external developers after facing regulatory pressure.
