DNB has been playing a game with Apple Pay for some time. In Norway, DNB controls a cash transfer app, based on phone numbers called Vipps. Which is likely at the heart of this.

They have refused to accept that customers using Apple Pay or any other mobile payment solution besides their own.

They are delusional that Apple will somehow open up the NFC, or make a generic payment wallet solution for the Norwegian market.
