Apple Unveils Apple Pay Mobile Wallet and Payment System

Apple unveiled a new mobile wallet on Tuesday aimed at allowing consumers to use iPhones linked to credit cards for more secure, convenient payments.
Apple chief Tim Cook said the Apple Pay system would replace an "antiquated payment process" with "an entirely new payment system" that allows consumers to touch their phones to retail terminals.
The new payment system will be built into the new iPhones and Apples operating system which were also unveiled Thursday.

Cook said that each day in the United States alone "thats 200 million times that we scramble through our credit cards and go through what is a fairly antiquated payment process."
(In comparison: iPhone 6 Plus versus iPhone 6 versus iPhone 5s versus iPhone 5c)
He said other efforts have failed because the companies introducing mobile wallets were working on the basis of "their self-interest" instead of the user experience.
Cook showed a video of a consumer tapping a phone on a payment terminal, commenting, "its so cool."
Google Wallet for Google Glass Soon
According to some close sources, Google Wallet will be soon launched to Glass and is currently testing a way for Glass users to send money through Wallet just by asking Glass to "send money".

Google Wallet is expected to come for all Glass users in the near future. For installing Wallet to the device, first you need to login on that device on Googles corporate network. You can install complete Wallet firmware from there, and ready to send money from Glass.

A similar service is also available for Gmail users, very much identical providing the ability to send money directly from Glass. While having dinner at a restaurant, you can easily share your bill with your friend by simply asking Glass to "send money".
