Meijer Stores Self Checkout Apple Pay FANTASTIC

I went grocery shopping at the Canton, Michigan Meijer last weekend on Oct 25th, and when I tried to pay with Apple Pay it didn't work. It popped up on my phone, I did the TouchID authorization, but the cashier said it didn't go through. In fact, she stated, "I've never heard of Apple Pay, I don't think we're set up for it."

Yup did the same thing to me nfc worked fine but the payment would not go , I tired it 3 times and the payment go thought. I know it worked when I was using Isis/softcard . But it's not working with Apple pay . I wonder whats going on because on the apple pay site it show they support it however it also say on the currentc that their a supporter so I wonder if they turned it off.

Success - I stopped at the same Meijer store this morning, at their gas station. Used Apple Pay successfully at the gas pump. Held my iPhone up to the FastTAP reader, and the authorization screen popped up. Used TouchID, and the pump acted exactly as if I had swiped a card in the card reader.

Perhaps Meijer has updated their systems, or the gas pumps have worked properly all along.

Had the same experience as WiseJD last night in a Chicago taxi. As the driver was stopping at my destination, I was fumbling for my credit card when I inadvertently touched my phone to the cab's card reader. Apple Pay came up instantly, so I touched the Home button and was done. The best part is that the cab driver never gets my credit card info. What a fantastic solution. I'm going to use it every chance I get.

This article seems to claim they are accepting Apple Pay, despite the CurrentC issue:
