At the moment Apple has had a decent head start with Apple Pay. But will Apple’s advantage of being first with a proper solution be the key to future success. Well, we are about to find out.
A leaked screen from a MacDonalds computer shows the date for Android Pay and Samsung Pay as going live on 26th and 21st August 2015 respectively. That’s this week. At the moment, it only seems like it applies to the US, but I hope the UK is not far behind.
If you had a phone capable of mobile payments, would you use it? And how would you feel if you phone got stolen if you were using it for financial transactions?

Probably not. Seen embarrassing iPhone users try 2 and 3 times to make a payment. Will stick to reliable NFC in my credit card

Obviously I was not one of them. Mine works just fine first time each and every time.
Also NatWest recently added support for the Apple Watch. It still feels weird getting cash without having to use your debit card.

I agree with Mike. People I know that have used Apple Pay have had zero issues.

Do you use a case with your iPhone? The people I saw were using a case.
