But the restaurants and stores that DO have wifi make life so much easier. I like to read the news, check weather, etc. Stores without wifi make researching products harder, and Apple Pay is just so ridiculously much quicker and more secure.
Stores don't need a lot of things, but if they want to attract customers, they should want to make it easier for those customers to find things, research things, and PAY for those things. Apple Pay is one service that helps make payments quicker, easier, more secure. I used to shop at a hardware store that used an old time first generation electric cash register, the ones with the window that had the numbers pop up in there and it was kind of cool, but time consuming. Would I want to wait for that to happen now? Hmm, sadly, no.
Imagine a store that didn't take credit cards. I'm sure they will have people just beating down the door to spend their cash money.
