Bank of America says 1.1 million cards now use Apple Pay
Bank of America, which partnered with Apple to rollout Apple Pay at launch last October, has announced new customer data on adoption of the iPhone-based mobile payment service. The bank’s most recent quarterly earnings reveal that nearly 800,000 of its customers have begun using Apple Pay with a total of about 1.1 million debit and credit cards activated.
In addition to the latest customer data from Bank of America, support for paying with Apple Pay is popping up in another grocery store chain…
Shoppers in Northern California and Nevada now have the option to check out with Apple Pay at Lucky, Save Mart and FoodMaxx stores, Save Mart Supermarkets announced today.
“Expect new things in our stores this year—the first of which is Apple Pay. We are working diligently to transform the shopping experience for our customers and this cutting-edge technology will help to speed them through checkout,” explained Nicole Piccinini Pesco, Co-President & Chief Strategy and Branding Officer. “Accepting Apple Pay provides shoppers a secure and private way to pay for their groceries and we’ve added support for this new mobile payment method solely for their benefit and convenience.”
Save Mart Supermarkets noted that shoppers at all three of its stores can start paying with Apple Pay as soon as today with 217 locations available.
Paying in stores with Apple Pay, of course, is supported on the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, while theApple Watch will enable iPhone 5, iPhone 5c, and iPhone 5s users to pay with the service upon the watch’s launch expected in March.
Apple Pay does require that your bank support the service, and you can find the full list of banks with support rolled out so far here. If you’re bank is not yet on that list, we have a larger list of banks planning to support Apple Pay here.

Deleteborth of us
Deletehow this use for us??
ReplyDeleteJust because a lot of people use it doesn't mean it's done properly. It just means a lot of people use it.
Deleteother make something hoping apple will follow (while their fan will said apple copy other) ... then when it work properly , other will copy apple
ReplyDeletethats true ... I accept that
DeleteBasically Apple did a good thing with ApplePay..
ReplyDeleteObviously Google Wallet has been around.. But it could never get as wide a adoption as ApplePay (as a matter of fact Apple Pay adoption is going to boost Google wallet adoption)..
Google can't push users to use Google Wallet as they don't make many devices.. The OEMs like samsung, htc can push users to use Wallet but they won't.. Cos they have nothing to gain from it. Google gets the profit from Google Wallet not Samsung..
I have to agree. There are two big kinds of mentality.
DeleteCopy and make all from everything you can do...Samsung and Lg has Everything to sell, laptops/tv/mobile/hairdryer/tablets/furniture etc and the other trying to live something behind and thinking about what maybe the users will use everyday and make their life a lot easier. Yes, a lot easier makes you stupid over time because your brain enter in a standby and everything just works and no worries or research learning have to do anymore. I mean after 4 years in Apple ecosystem i went to a friend to make a network system, and i HAVE to do some researh on the web because i got so lazy and let apple do every work for me
