Apple Pay on iPhone
Apple Pay is a mobile payment service created by Apple that was introduced in a Keynote on September 9, 2014. Its Release scheduled for October 20, 2014 for iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus and early 2015 for Apple Watch , iPad Air 2 and iPad Mini 3 (launched October 16, 2014). All this initially available only for the United States and later internationally. The service allows users of the iPhone to pay for their purchase "with a single touch" using Near field communication (NFC) technology in conjunction with Touch ID and Passbook.It can also be used to make purchases within participating applications; on its website, Apple demonstrates how Apple Pay works in the Target mobile app, among others.
On December 1, 2016, it arrived in Spain and became an essential means of payment for many. At first, only Banco Santander was compatible, but today all (or almost all) of the banks whose cards are compatible, as well as the establishments where they can be used.
In some South American countries, Apple Pay has begun to be used barely a month ago, as is the case in Argentina due to problems with banks in each country.
My daily use of Apple Pay:
Yes, you read correctly. I use it daily. Many times I go out without my bag and only with my mobile phone in my pocket. Sometimes I have entered it in my watch, but for me it is much more inconvenient to have to enter the code every two minutes, so I have it in the iPhone and I always use it what do I want.
The truth is that since Apple Pay arrived in Spain, not a single day has gone by that I haven't used it, well, when they locked us up for the Coronavirus, no I could use it. For me it is very useful and indispensable. I use it for everything. Even if it's to buy bread, I use Apple Pay I never carry change with me anymore and I even use my cell phone to pay for public transport.
Do you use it?.
