Apple Pay may be game-changing play
NEW YORK — The fledgling mobile payments industry faces a crucial test this month as Apple unleashes Apple Pay to its army of new iPhone owners. Apple is trying to succeed where Google and others so far have largely failed: getting consumers to cast aside physical wallets and use their phones to pay at the checkout counter. When it launches in the next few weeks (Apple has not confirmed a specific date) Apple Pay will let U.S. owners of the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus models — and eventually folks who have an Apple Watch — use those devices to transact. Apple is an important catalyst for mobile payments — perhaps the biggest catalyst. With sales of more than 10 million new iPhones, the company is seeding lots of consumers with handsets that can double as digital wallets.
