Apple Pay Rolls Out In US
Apple has rolled out a new mobile payment service known as Apple Pay. The service is now available in the US with the new iPhone 6, and can be used to make in-store purchases at certain establishments that have signed on to Apple’s Network. Contactless readers have been installed at about 200,0000 locations, including McDonald’s and Walt Disney World. The new Apple phone is locked with Touch ID, so that a stolen phone cannot be used to make purchases. Users do not need to open their phone or an app to use Apple Pay. They simply hold their phone up to a reader while touching the screen. While Apple feels this will be a game changer for the payment industry, the tech giant admits there is a long way to go.
苹果推出全新移动支付Apple Pay。目前仅适用于本土,且为新iPhone 6用户,用户可在苹果指定商户购物。包括麦当劳,迪士尼在内的约20万处场所安装了无线读卡器。新苹果手机拥有指纹识别系统,被盗手机无法支付。用户无需打开手机或使用应用。只需将手机放到读卡器,通过指纹识别付款。苹果称Apple Pay将改变支付产业发展模式,但任重道远。
