According to one Twitter user, ING France has updated and now supports Apple Wallet as of today, January 21:

l'arrivée d'#ApplePay est donc confirmée avant le 30/06/2020.
On en reparle cette semaine dans un article dédié à #ing
ING already offers Apple Pay to its customers in several other countries including the Netherlands and Germany. Commenting on today's revelation that ING France now supports Apple's Wallet app, ING's Belgium Twitter account also revealed that there is "no official and fixed date yet that we can communicate" - however, it offered Payconiq as an alternative to customers "while waiting", seemingly confirming that Apple Pay is on the way there too. A couple of disgruntled users blasted Payconiq and ING Belgique's response on Twitter, one user lamented (translated):
We ask you about the availability of the LED bulb and you suggest candle lighting ...
So, Apple Pay is coming to ING France in the next couple of months, and it seems as though Belgium won't be far behind, however, there is no confirmed date.
