When Apple Pay launched, the tech giant got big banks including JPMorgan, Capital One, and Bank of America to agree to pay fees that would allow their cardholders to pay by iPhone.

“Our bank partners continue to see the benefits of providing Apple Pay and invest in new ways to implement and promote Apple Pay to their customers for secure and private in-store and online purchases,” the company said.
