Why would people not use plastic currently and now adopt Apple Pay?
- JoeAltmaier 11y agoIts another gadget and training and relationship with another billing entity and register programming and ....
- ska 11y agoWhy would any of that be different? As I understood it, from the point of view of the retailer it's no different than a (contactless) card. So sure, she might have to update her POS, but is going to have to do that anyway. So no different gadget, no different training, maybe another processer but maybe what she's already using? What am I missing?
- JoeAltmaier 11y agoShe most certainly doesn't have to update her POS. She can sit tight, accept cash and cards and do fine.
- ska 11y agoMy understanding was the chip and pin / EMV is coming for all merchants in the US pretty soon, regardless of what they think of it. If your forced into making that change, supporting apple pay isn't anything much additional. Of course I could be wrong about that.
