Subjugating economic activity to Amazon in part and Apple in another part isn't the right track, socially and IMHO.



Apple Pay is nothing at all like Amazon. Apple Pay is simply a convenient, secure way of paying without giving out your credit card number, and reduces risk of fraudulent transactions and chargebacks for merchants, who also don’t need to worry about storing credit cards and having them stolen. It’s a win win situation.


IOW, it's exactly like PayPal and Amazon Pay and Sanmsung Pay and Chase Pay...


The context of the discussion is selling products as a reseller on amazon.com, which has nothing to do with Amazon Pay or Apple Pay, hence when the previous poster claimed Apple Pay is just as bad as Amazon, I clarified that it’s apples and oranges. Maybe Amazon Pay and the others are good too, I’ve never used it so I can’t comment on it.


It sounds like a commercial, not an argument in a discussion. It has all the claims, none of the proofs.
