Yes Apple amazing.

I've been doing that with my debit card for years.

 

[JABEE]

What about security?

 

[freenudemacusers]

whoa i just got a weird timewarp back to the seating portion of the stream. goddamn.

 

[knicks]

Okay you still will need your wallet for plenty of things though.

Your drivers license, BJ's/Costco card, places that don't accept credit under a minimum, etc...

 

[Somnid]

Credit cards are actually really bad. It's not really a joke and it is something that's in dire need of repair. But then again nobody is going to depend on iPhone specific payments either so they will remain

 

[Orbis Tabula]

They should call Fish and Cushion on stage to announce the new payment thing.

 

[Deleted member 10571]

Cool, Apple Pay will be the new standard for

oh right

 

[Dalek]

Oh God, not Eddy. This guy is such a dweeb.

 

[jts]

Apple Pay is going to be all over the place tho.

the future

GET IN LADS

 

[Hasney]

Seriously, I have a debit card that does this RIGHT NOW. I'm pretty sure my S4 does too.

Used my card in Subway and Co-Op just today.

 

[Vostro]

Lol this is nothing new. It's NFC.

 

[ScepticMatt]

we have credit cards with chips and nfc here ...

 

[gimmmick]

NFC bitches!

 

[Bricky]

NFC? No way! What amazing technology never seen in phones before!

 

[The Real Abed]

I'm intrigued at ApplePay. But will probably never see it in the wild for a while. Will it be a standard that everyone can use? (Even if they call it something else like FireWire vs. iLink?)

 

[jett]

How can these people actually stand there and claim this shit is more secure than a credit card?

 

[mreddie]

Uhhhhh...

So NFC?...Google Wallet?...hello...

Oh but Apple is doing it so suddenly it's gonna be popular.

 

[JP]

This stream may well be the greatest experience of my entire life, can't stop laughing here.

 

[Krev]

It's not that impressive. In Australia and Europe at least, contactless payment is everywhere.

 

[Particle Physicist]

Let's pretend we invented NFC!

They aren't pretending they invented NFC. In fact, they just mentioned that it is the standard for wireless payments.

 

[kabel]

Apple Pay?

Why not iPay?

 

[BigJonsson]

It's 2014 you can tap your credit card and pay without a PIN or signature for small purchases

And only a few places still have to swipe the card......unless you are in the US

[Shalashaska161]

So why is this different from using my tap chip card? Or more secure than using my pin number for my Visa? Comon Apple you can do better than this.

 

[Gandie]

Damn, I blinked and missed it

 

[Desi]

if i can use my iPhone at the library this is a win.

 

[AlexMeloche]

Good, Passbook will have a use now.

[-PXG-]

Apple is a joke. Goddamn

 

[Boof]

"Groundbreaking NFC Technology"

DAT APPLE TWIST

 

[Bomber Bob]

You can just use the card you already have on file with iTunes.

holy shit this is huge

 

[twobear]

ha.
Someone says this after every Apple announcement.

rip apple

'it's just a big iphone'

 

[MattJon]

I feel like I'm in that episode of LOST where they kept skipping through time. Terrible stream.

 

[kudoboi]

im pretty sure i had this on my galaxy nexus which is 3 years old

 

[JonCha]

This thread is making me laugh quite a lot like now, some pretty funny comments.

 

[sankt-Antonio]

So what do i do when my battery runs out ? Shit out of luck i guess.

 

[Fuchsdh]

How can these people actually stand there and claim this shit is more secure than a credit card?

...because credit cards are horrible? Dunno if NFC is the solution, but with Apple pushing it now too I imagine it's going to get far more common.

 

[CrankyJay]

Lol this is nothing new. It's NFC.

more stores will jump on board because apple is on board, that's all you need. everyone crying that other phones already have NFC don't get this

 

[jts]

Guessing it uses Touch ID.

I meant the name, for jokes.

I've never swiped.

 

[Squalor]

How long before celebrities' "encrypted" payment histories are hacked?

 

[dave is ok]

This is just for America since we're still magnetic strip cavemen

 

[Nivert]

Uh take a picture to add a card? ANY card?

 

[T.M. MacReady]

You did. So did I.

No wireless. Less space than a Nomad. Etc.

 

[Byakuya769]

Uhhhhh...

So NFC?...Google Wallet?...hello...

Never heard of those. Cool that stores have had those little pad things set up for years in anticipation of apple's innovation.

 

[MarkusRJR]

So... this is literally the same thing we have in Canada for NFC phones?

lmao @ everyone screaming and clapping when Tim just says "Apple Pay" with no explanation.

All that wrinkle and no tuck in. :/
