Somewhat overlooked during a flurry of MacBook and Apple Watch announcements this past Monday was Tim Cook's somewhat brief discussion of Apple Pay. Since launching this past fall, Apple's mobile payments platform has continued to see widespread adoption, not only with consumers, but with retailers well.
And now, apparently, you can add vending machines to the list of Apple Pay partners.
Tim Cook on Monday said that Coca-Cola plans to roll out over 100,000 Apple Pay equipped vending machines in 2015. As it stands today, Cook relayed that over 40,000 coke vending machines already accept Apple Pay as payment.
Apple Pay is poised to go further than ever before
