Web domain registrar GoDaddy and donation platform Causemo today separately announced they now accept Apple Pay on their respective websites.

GoDaddy is providing Apple Pay to all of its online store merchants who enable credit card payments through Stripe on mobile devices.

Causemo, a startup platform enabling non-profit organizations to acquire and retain donors, is providing Apple Pay on the web in Safari on Mac, iPhone, and iPad. When using Apple Pay, donors do not have to enter their billing, shipping, or contact details. Apple Pay is shown as the default payment option on enabled devices.

In November, Apple announced that nonprofit organizations in the United States are now able to accept donations using Apple Pay.
"We're making it incredibly easy to give back with Apple Pay," said Jennifer Bailey, Apple's vice president of Apple Pay. "Websites and apps tell us they see twice as many people actually completing a purchase with Apple Pay than with other payment methods. We think offering such a simple and secure way to support the incredible work nonprofits do will have a significant impact on the communities they serve."
Earlier this month, Apple Pay vice president Jennifer Bailey said 35% of merchants in the United States now accept Apple Pay, compared to only 4% of merchants that accepted the payment option when it launched in October 2014.

*thinks*

Nope, still not going to give the money trap known as GoDaddy anything.
Can I ask why you say that? I use GoDaddy for all of my services. Is there something that I don't know? :oops:

Same here. I exclusively use GoDaddy and they're great. Don't trash a company and not provide a reason or experience.

I actually used to use them. Whenever I went to renew or purchase a domain, I always had to read extremely closely to make sure I didn't accidentally buy some extra service due to the way they laid out their checkout pages. I'm not a fan of those tactics so I eventually moved everything elsewhere.

Of course, there's always the chance they've changed all that.

They still use the same tactics. I just read over my checkout extra carefully. Doesn't bother me personally but I don't agree with the tactic.
 
Aw, I thought I could pay my GoDaddy bill with Apple Pay. I have my credit card under too many subscriptions and it's hard to keep track. Having it all under ApplePay would not only be more easily tracked under one system with push notifications for each charge, it would be safer and easy to cancel a vendor without having to change the credit card and revalidate every single other vendor.
