蘋果Apple Pay再獲銀行支持 總量近800家
*據科技博客AppleInsider報道,蘋果移動支付服務Apple Pay週三再獲40家美國銀行支持,總量接近800家。與此同時,蘋果也在準備改進對商户的支持。*和近幾個月新增的銀行合作伙伴一樣,最新一批開始支持Apple Pay的銀行多數是小型區域性銀行,而不是全國性銀行。大多數美國主要銀行已經在去年年底迅速加入了支持Apple Pay的陣營。

對於蘋果來説,對商户的支持一直是一個大問題。儘管蘋果Apple Pay已經擁有大量合作伙伴,但是很多商户尚未開始接受Apple Pay支付,原因可能是商户需要升級他們的零售終端系統才能支持基於近場通訊(NFC)的交易。
美國比薩餅品牌達美樂將在今年年底前開始支持Apple Pay。KFC、星巴克等公司將在2016年接受蘋果移動支付服務。美國零售商JCPenney目前正在測試Apple Pay支付,明年春天應該會全面支持。
