Apple Pay launched in October 2014 addressing consumer pains with traditional payments like theft, fraud, and losing physical wallets. Apple's business model provides seamless, secure mobile payments through iPhone users, over 200 banks, 220,000 merchants, and credit card networks without collecting consumer data or charging fees to participants. This mobilizes the entire payments ecosystem in a way other solutions have not by focusing on user experience over self-interest.

By better understanding
consumers, Apple designed a
better value proposition!
7. But they didn’t just design
a better value proposition, they
designed a better business model!
8. Though the value
proposition is obvious…
…the business model is a
bit less understood.
9. “Most people that have
worked on this have started
by focusing on creating a
business model that was
centered on their self-interest
instead of focusing on the
user experience.”
– Tim Cook
10. Other solutions seek to
collect consumer data and
save on swipe fees by
cutting out the banks altogether!
11. So how is Apple building
an uncopyable business
model that delivers what
nobody else could?
