RadioShack to roll out Apple Pay, starting in five markets

Fort Worth, Texas --Starting next week, RadioShack will roll out its initial launch of Apple Pay at more than 900 RadioShack locations in five key markets: Manhattan, Washington, D.C., Chicago, Los Angeles and San Francisco.



Additional markets will be announced in 2015. RadioShack customers will be able to conveniently make purchases and check out using Apple Pay. Shoppers hold their iPhone near the contactless reader while keeping a finger on Touch ID. In participating stores, Apple Pay will work with iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus and Apple Watch, upon availability.



"RadioShack is proud to be one of the select retailers debuting this exciting new payment option from Apple," said Joe Magnacca, CEO at RadioShack. "As part of our commitment to put customers first, we want to provide additional payment options that take advantage of new solutions and make the process easier for the customer. We are pleased to continue to leverage technology to improve our store experience."
