Apple has updated its Apple Pay website with new partners, bringing the total number of retail stores that accept the touchless payment system to 61.
The new additions include Bashas', Coca-Cola Vending, Dan's Fresh Market, Dick's Fresh Market, Fudruckers, Jamba Juice, Jersey Mike's, JetBlue, Lin's Fresh Market, Maceys, Office Max, Pep Boys, Regal Cinemas and Walt Disney World.
During its "Spring forward" event, Apple CEO Tim Cook mentioned that Apple Pay can now be used to buy beverages from Coca-Cola's vending machines, with over 40,000 machines currently compatible with the payment system. That number is set to increase to 100,000 by the end of the year.
The list of retail stores that accept Apple Pay will be bolstered by the likes of Acme, Albertsons, Anthropologie, Free People, L.L. Bean and Urban Outfitters, which are listed in the "coming soon" section. By summer 2015, Marriott has stated that it will allow check-in via Apple Pay, with Etsy also pledging support along with GameStop.
