Two years before there were any rumors of Apple based peer-to-peer payments app, Patently Apple posted a patent report titled "Apple Working on new Apple Pay Wallet service for Person-to-Person Financial Transactions." Then Apple confirmed that iOS 11 would introduce a new payment app during their WWDC keynote. Prior to iOS 11 debuting during their special Apple event scheduled for September 12, Apple filed two trademark applications regarding 'Apple Pay Cash' with one being in figurative form late yesterday in Europe. At the same time they also filed for the 'Apple Clips' trademark.
