If Apple Pay or similar services becomes successful it will be very much their problem because it will undermine this portion of their business model. (They are primarily in the business of lending money to restaurants, this is a way to drive business. There are other ways.) I would not expect them to say much more until they have negotiated a solution, but to begin they may just want to see if there is a measurable falloff.
