Re: Apple Pay transaction volume and new user growth outpacing PayPal, Tim Cook says

Lots of places Chris, IKEA, Co-op, Aldi, Lidl, Morrisons, Miller & Carter, M&S, Apple of course, tbh every restaurant now seems to. ASDA and Tesco are only places I go that are holding out.

Definitely one advantage at least in the UK that's almost in every store is Apple Pay has no contactless limit, soon as people know about that advantage it's great
