Are you ready, Apple fans? It’s finally here… the last big Apple event of the year, which just so happens to take place right ahead of the holiday shopping season. What a coincidence! Apple doesn’t like to beat around the bush, and things started strong during Thursday’s press conference as CEO Tim Cook announced that Apple has signed more than 500 partners for Apple Pay’s launch, and the service will become available to Apple customers starting this Monday.

Apple Pay allows iPhone (and iPad) users to store payment card information and pay for products with their mobile devices. It can’t quite replace your wallet just yet, but it can be used to pay for products with a mobile solution that combined NFC and a software solution.
iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus users will be able to make in-store payments at stores that accept Apple Pay beginning Monday, and plenty of additional retailers will be added in the coming weeks and months.
