OmniTicket Network Embraces Apple Pay™ by Announcing Big Roll-out in Orlando
ORLANDO, Fla., Dec. 22, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- OmniTicket Network, part of the Best Union Group of Companies, is proud to support the roll-out of Apple Pay™ at the largest theme park complex in the world this year, and plans to continue supporting other clients in rolling-out this exciting technology in 2015!
Apple® announced the launch of Apple Pay in September, and OmniTicket Network has since developed an enhanced version of its innovative ticketing software that supports this new mobile payment and digital wallet service. According to the official statement issued by Apple on September 9th, Apple Pay "will transform mobile payments with an easy, secure and private way to pay. Apple Pay works with iPhone® 6 and iPhone 6 Plus through a groundbreaking NFC antenna design, a dedicated chip called the Secure Element, and the security and convenience of Touch ID™. Apple Pay is easy to set up, so hundreds of millions of users can simply add their credit or debit card on file from their iTunes Store® account. Apple Pay will also work with the newly announced Apple Watch™, extending Apple Pay to over 200 million owners of iPhone 5, iPhone 5c and iPhone 5s worldwide. "
The statement from Apple also announced that Walt Disney Resorts in Orlando will support Apple Pay, and a Walt Disney Co. spokesperson told the Orlando Sentinel in an article published on September 9th that, "Apple Pay makes shopping fast and easy for guests and simplifies the check-out process for our cast members. Our guests are going to love the convenience of Apple Pay, which will bring an easy, secure and private way to make purchases at Disney Store and Walt Disney World Resort."
Heading into 2015, OmniTicket Network will develop further software enhancements to support the roll-out of Apple Pay at additional attractions and leisure venues. Mickey Carlson, COO of OmniTicket Network's North American Operations, says, "OmniTicket is committed to supporting Apple Pay for our clients who want to embrace this exciting new payment technology.
