According to information published this week by Re / code, the company that Tim Cook runs does not intend to leave Apple Pay as a payment system for physical stores and to make purchases integrated in some applications. Plans would include bringing their mobile payments service to mobile web pages and its arrival would take place before the Christmas holidays of this year, important dates for being one of the moments in which users spend the most.
According to Re / code, Apple has already spoken with potential partners informing them that users could pay with Apple Pay from mobile websites instead of having to use our card of credit. Surely if you use to make purchases online, this will be familiar to you, especially if you pay with PayPal: there are many establishments that have the option "Pay with PayPal", which sends us an email to confirm the transaction and is one of the more comfortable and secure systems with which we can pay online.
Apple Pay wants to be PayPal's rival
Not many details have been provided, but it is believed that Apple will add this feature to iOS devices that have touch ID. On the other hand, they are also considering bringing the possibility of paying with Apple Pay to Macs. The bad thing is that, as you all know, no Mac with Touch ID has yet been launched, but it is only a matter of time before they include a compatible system , which could come in a Magic Trackpad 3, for example, using a technology similar to a patent that would allow the use of Touch ID on the screen of an iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad.
In my opinion, Apple will carry out what Re / code says, but I have no doubt that it will be compatible with all Apple devices of the future. On the other hand, payment would be more convenient than with the rest of known similar systems, since we would only have to put our fingerprint to confirm the payment. Of course, will Apple Pay reach our country before reaching the web pages?
Various nonsense, until it reaches Spain, to see what interest these news have for us.
We will have to wait for July to know the possible launch date of Apple Pay in Spain. It has already been announced, the only thing that when this information was released would only support American Express as a card associated with Apple Pay in Spain. Hopefully Apple surprises us all.
