USA Technologies is a leading company of wireless, cashless payment and M2M/IoT solutions for small-ticket and self-serve retailing industries.

The company has now announced a nationwide rollout of new acceptance points for Apple Pay, bringing support to around 200,000 of self-serve payment terminals that its customers use, such as coffee brewers, vending machines, kiosks, laundry equipment and pay parking terminals.

Stephen P. Herbert, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of USA Technologies, said the following:

Our customers are excited to accept Apple Pay at the self-serve locations they operate. We anticipate that the millions of consumers who frequent these locations will appreciate the convenience and security of using Apple Pay for their everyday purchases, and we believe that Apple Pay will help to drive additional sales for our customers.

USA Technologies has always sought to provide convenience, security and an easy way to pay for consumers who are less and less likely to carry cash. We recognized early on the potential for mobile payment, and promoted the technology to ensure our customers were ready for this shift to occur.

USA Technologies has partnerships with big brands like Starbucks but also with many other smaller self-serve locations, which means you will be able to pay with your iPhone or iPad

Apple Pay is expanding pretty fast, as Chevron has recently announced plans to bring Apple Pay directly to payment terminals and Western Union also announced that it’s now accepting Apple Pay across all of its flagship locations in the US.
