Apple Pay

Apple Pay launches with iOS 8.1 tomorrow in the States. I thought I would start a thread to cover people's experience. I think Apple Pay can be beneficial to MSers in a few ways, one, it should allow for prepaid cards from certain banks to be added to your Apple Pay wallet, potentially masking certain issues in regards to names printed on the cards. Two, given the substantial security features built in, I wouldn't be surprised for banks to continue to hype it by offering promos in coming weeks/months similar to what we have seen with ISIS/Softcard in the past.

On that note, I am sort of debating actually holding out on adding certain cards in hopes that I might get targeted for a future promotion.

I look forward to hearing about people's experiences in the days to come.
