Africa, ApplePay and the iPhone 6: Resistance is futile
- herge 12y agoUgh, talk about an article needing a SavedYouAClick. So ApplePay might finally make mobile payments worthwhile, because of Apple's pressure on merchants. Which is nice because credit card fraud in the US accounts for 7-15 billion dollars per year, which is not enough to warrant changing all the POS systems in the US. But maybe not right away. Also, we will randomly mention sub-sahara Africa because they apparently use a lot of mobile payments already, except not with ApplePay.

- skc 12y agoThe Africa tie in here is beyond stupid. Not to be flippant but Africa is the absolute last place anything "Apple" will take hold.
