The majority of folk whom I know carry iPhones capable of Apple Pay don't know, and seem not to care, of what it is, or can do.
Recent reports indicate it has been, and may be an uphill battle, not just for Apple, but all the other coming payment systems.
Seems like it thus far. Look how many people have Google Wallet and an NFC phone, like me, and just don't use it. Apple Pay will pick up more steam after most iPhone users are on an Apple Pay capable device, but it might still take some time.
You simply go to https://www.google.com/wallet/ Sign in with your normal Google userid/pass, attach a card to the account, make a pin code, download the app. Sign into it once and away you go. You can even have them send you a Google Wallet Debit MasterCard that's attached to the account in case you wanna use that instead. A monkey can do it.
I will never use Google Wallet because a) I don't trust Google, and b) I don't trust Google.
You trust your stupid bank. I don't even know your bank and I know they're stupid and corrupt. You trust Apple and they were actually hacked. What would Google do? Give away your credit card information? The outsized distrust of Google is irrational and silly. Don't be silly. I'm trusting you to be the Godfather of my next pet.
