Apple Pay will launch on Monday, October 20, alongside iOS 8.1, which will enable the service, according to an announcement from Apple during Thursday's introduction of the next line of iPads. Eddy Cue, Apple's senior vice president of Internet Software and Services, said: 'Our team has worked incredibly hard to make Apple Pay private and secure, with the simplicity of a single touch of your finger. The reaction to Apple Pay has been amazing. We continue to add more Apple Pay ready banks, credit card companies and merchants, and think our users will love paying with Apple Pay.'


Apple Pay is Apple's new mobile payment and digital wallet service that allows payments for goods and services bought at retail and online checkouts using iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, the Apple Watch-compatible iPhone 5s, and the newly released iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 3.
