Have you used tap to pay yet?
-
I have not looked into it. Where will you be able to use it?
-
I have been wondering that too. Where can one use an iPhone tap to pay system today?

Panera bread if your local one is updated. Whole Foods is another that has been rolling it out.

We use a tap for water...
I've used one called paywave on a card, took less than 5 seconds to process the payment and print the receipt. I don't like it because I can't turn off the NFC like payment field.
On a phone, however, that's another story. I haven't used one yet but I like the idea of being able to turn off NFC.

You don't need to turn off the NFC (but you can). before it will work, you have to enter a Pin for the app on android - maybe you have to scan your finger on the iPhone.

McDonald's, Panera, Subway, Amco gas stations, Wholefoods, etc.
By this time next year, nearly everyone will probably support it.

I know petco has it, bestbuy, all of our local grocery stores, heck, my wifes store and her paw's store just received new card stations from their provider (FirstData) to allow them to accept the apple pay etc. Sad news, none of our debit cards qualify and we dont really use our credit cards. here's to waiting for our Debits
-
I saw it appear in the app store. But it looks like you need a special app for every business where you want to use it?
-
no, go to passbook. and add cards.

Ok, thanks.

I can't speak for the Apple side of things - but on Android There are two options (that I know of) ISIS/SoftCard and Google Wallet. Both offer different options but function the same. It's also possible that currently different banks have signed up with each app/company, I would suspect that most banks will do all the popular apps by summer next year when a large percentage of the new Card Stations have been deployed.
