Apple Pay is a mobile payment solution that allows iPhone 6 and above users to make payments using
their smartphone or other mobile Apple devices. Before Apple Pay’s November 2015 launch in Canada, it was
previously launched in the U.S. and U.K. markets and Apple has plans for further global expansion. In Canada,
Apple Pay works by adding an American Express (Amex) card to the payment software on an iPhone 6 and
above to activate payments. Apple (Apple Pay), Samsung (Samsung Pay) and Google (Android Pay) have all
launched digital wallet mobile payment systems (Stenovec, 2015).
Apple Pay uses near field communication (NFC) chips embedded in the iPhone 6 and
newer models in conjunction with its Touch ID fingerprint scanner to pay for goods and
services as you would a contactless card or to make purchases within apps and websites
(Williams, 2015).
Benefits of Apple Pay to consumers include increased security with biometric information requirements
(fingerprints, heart rate, etc.) and a unique code that is generated once per transaction (Deloitte, 2015). This
security features diminishes the ability of individuals, vendors, or cyber thieves to steal credit card information
during the transaction and prevents the use of card information for other purchases or fraudulent purposes
(Deloitte, 2015). Apple Pay will continue to be a system that is slowly adopted as more individuals in the target
audience of 34 to 45 year olds continue to adopt the technology (Grewal D. L., 2012).
Apple Pay is a modern service that offers global consumers a digital wallet with major retail brands,
banks, car services, hotels, and eventually a content offering that will meet the needs of the “Bring Your Own
Persona to the Brand - BYOPB” experience to all market segments (see Appendix M) (Perau, 2014). Apple is
utilizing a “benefit segmentation” approach (Grewal, Levy, Lichti, & Persaud, Marketing: 3rd Canadian
Edition, 2015). Benefits for users include the merging of loyalty programs, banking, payment and interests into
a seamless experience that stores all information and promotes location based experiences based on habits and
activities unique to the individual. With Apple Pay, Apple is approaching users according to the benefits they
want, such as ease of use, collecting loyalty points, managing their money, and faster purchases with brands like
Starbucks, Taco Bell, luxury hotels already onboard in the US (Trend Watching, 2015). Apple Pay needs to
offer similar experiences in Canada to continue to edge out competitors. Apple Pay’s major direct competitors
are Android Pay, Samsung Pay and mobile banking from banks.
Strengths Overview
Apple’s strong market share and customer loyalty has set up the Apple Pay application for success.
Additionally, Apple Pay’s simple design and enhanced security features make it an attractive digital payment
option for customers and merchants. Finally, in the evolving fields of wearable technology and mobile
payments, Apple Pay is uniquely positioned to be a leader.

Strong Market Share
Apple earns about 90% of the smartphone industry’s profits each quarter (Epstein, 2015). Forty percent
of the Canadian smartphone market share belongs to Apple (Berman, 2015). In the U.S., Apple Pay is already
dominating; in 2015, Apple Pay accounted for 68% of U.S. in-store mobile phone payments (Accenture
Consulting, 2015). Apple Pay is also the most popular digital payment solution among merchants (Hughes,
2016).
Brand Loyalty
83% of iPhone users say they will stick with Apple the next time they buy a phone versus 64% of
Samsung customers (Epstein, 2015). Apple Pay arrived in Canada when none of the digital wallet solutions
available to Canadian smartphone users were compatible with the iPhone (Dobby, 2015). As a result, the nearly
10,000,000 Canadian iPhone customers looking to adopt a mobile payment solution will use Apple Pay (Hardy,
2015).
Simple & Easy to Use
Customers quickly add credit card information to their iPhone by scanning the card or entering the
details directly into Wallet. Unlike its competitors, Apple Pay payments can be made through the home screen
using Touch ID. American Express also makes the process seamless, as they notify users when an in-store or
in-app purchase has been made to allow users to check purchases and pay off card balances (Bader, FAQ:
What you need to know about Apple Pay in Canada and Australia, 2016). For merchants, if their point of sale
terminals are equipped for contactless payments and they accept Amex already, adopting Apple Pay is easy
(Fong, 2015). About 85% of Canadian terminals are up-to-date with NFC capabilities, making it easy to adopt
Apple Pay (Berman, 2015).
Secure & Private
Apple Pay uses tokenization to protect users’ credit card numbers. Each credit card is assigned a unique
Device Account Number (DAN), which is then encrypted and used to process the payment and stored on the
device, rather than the credit card number, which is never transmitted to merchants (Apple Inc., n.d.). It is
“more difficult to clone and nearly impossible to hack” (Bader, The future of Apple Pay: From payments to
platform, 2016). Purchases also require users Touch ID or passcode (Bader, The future of Apple Pay: From
payments to platform, 2016). Lost or stolen iPhones, Apple’s Find My Phone app allows users to suspend Apple
Pay or wipe their phones completely (Apple Inc., n.d.).

Wearables
Apple Pay is the only digital payment system to offer compatibility with wearables, specifically the
Apple Watch (H., 2016). Consumers globally are taking up running casually with a target audience of 15 to 65
year olds; capturing the multi-generational audience with the Apple watch and Apple Pay offers cross channel
interest based marketing opportunities that respond to their common interest of running to get fit (European
Commission, 2016). For instance, millennial women are a key audience to be early adopters of the Apple Watch
which offers a cross-channel affiliate marketing opportunity with Apple Pay. The link between fitness, multi-
tasking and a one-stop solution for work, family, money and entertainment is solved by the Apple Watch
product and Apple Pay service when marketed together i.e Apple Watch Climb commercial (Apple Watch -
Climb, 2016).
Strength’s Conclusion
Apple Pay has a lot to offer its Canadian customers. Apple is currently negotiating additional credit card
and bank agreements, and adding loyalty and discount programs. Continuing to build the customer lifetime
value proposition of wearables is another avenue for growth for Apple and its digital payment system.
Weaknesses Overview
Apple Pay has shown success in the U.S. as nearly all the major banks and 220,000 stores have accepted
it nationwide (Davidson, Apple Pay is here – and there’s just one big problem., 2015). Unlike Canada, the U.S.
has not fully adopted chip-and-pin cards. With its introduction in Canada, Apple Pay failed to provide the same
niche, since fast and convenient payments already exist. Apple Pay is struggling to break through the
introduction phase and reach growth, as Canadians consumers and merchants are unsure why they need this
service (Grewal, Levy, Lichti, & Persaud, Marketing: 2nd Canadian Edition, 2012). Future growth will come
from moving beyond NFC technology by linking Apple Pay with a tap technology feature (Appendix D).
American Express
By releasing Apple Pay as a service compatible only with American Express, Apple sidestepped
Canada’s largest creditors and the world’s chief card networks. Amex is the underdog in the Canadian market
with only 8.2% of the market share totaling 4.6 million credit cards – significantly less than the 70 million cards
for Visa and MasterCard (Pellegrini, Apple Pay may be a hit with Canadian consumers, but ubiquity won’t
come until banks sign on, 2015). Many retailers do not accept Amex due to high transaction processing costs.
For Apple Pay to expand, users need more options, such as the ability to add more credit and debit cards and the
incorporation of loyalty programs. Until then, Apple pay is no better than other mobile payment applications
(Appendix D).

Major Banks - Transaction Support
Despite the adoption of Android Pay by major credit cards such as MasterCard, Visa, Amex and
Discover, Apple Pay has not negotiated any deals (Appendix D). None of the major banks or credit cards
showed interest in supporting Apple Pay, despite the majority of cards being equipped with the required
technology (Pellegrini, Apple Pay may be a hit with Canadian consumers, but ubiquity won’t come until banks
sign on, 2015). Even if Apple represented 30% of all credit card sales and 10 basis points per sale, the effect on
revenue would be inconsequential for the sector (Pellegrini, Apple Pay may be a hit with Canadian consumers,
but ubiquity won’t come until banks sign on, 2015).
Cost per Transaction
Discussions with Canadian banks are focused on issues of cost and security, as Apple wants to charge 15
cents for every $100 spent, while banks will only see a profit of 23 cents on every dollar (Freeman, 8 things you
need to know about Apple Pay in Canada, 2015). The leading Canadian banks are simultaneously urging
customers to adopt their own mobile wallets, where fees are a non-issue (Appendix D). Connecting with
Canadian banks would give Apple Pay the push it needs to gain acceptance. Moreover, banks and credit cards
would also be able to expand their capabilities as a card network.
Cross Selling & Strategic Alliance Promotions
Apple Pay does not currently share consumer data (Appendix D). By allowing exchange of data from
mobile transactions, merchants can improve their selling strategy by creating customer incentives. Apple Pay
needs to adopt initiatives much like Android Pay, which includes loyalty incentives, offers, and pre-payment for
quick pickup of items (Appendix D) (Bader, What Android Pay means for Canadians, 2015). Android also
offers monetary incentives for adoption, such as $20 coupons or $10 off purchases (Curry, Everything you need
to know about Android Pay, 2016). These value added services heighten the experience and create a service that
is more than simply mobile payment (Gorman, Subway’s new mobile pay solution, 2014).
Loyalty Program Integration
Apple Pay needs to grab hold of the loyalty card trend and use it to increase its customer satisfaction,
user capabilities, and get more merchants on board (Grewal D. L., 2012). Merchants could find exclusive
methods to connect with customers using special offers and store incentives. Enhancing the customer
experience is an important part of creating and maintaining business, and targeted offers could create long-term
users of Apple Pay (Appendix D).

Weaknesses Summary
Canadian customers, merchants and retailers must be convinced Apple Pay is worth using. Apple must
increase and modify marketing initiatives to target supported iPhone users. This will increase users by creating
new customers and extend the product life cycle (Grewal, Levy, Lichti, & Persaud, Marketing: 2nd Canadian
Edition, 2012).
Opportunities Overview
Apple Pay has the opportunity to be a digital wallet in Canada for the 61,591,000 credit cards held by
users over 20 years of age, although they have currently limited themselves to the mere 8.2%, or 5 million,
Amex cards held in the country (Statistics Canada, 2015). To gain further traction in the Canadian digital
mobile payment landscape, the conversation needs to change to an experience that includes wayfinding and
geographic locations of the brand that you are looking to buy beyond the Point-Of-Sale check-out. A deeper
link with mobile loyalty programs and the dialogue of social media (e.g. Facebook, Pinterest, YouTube and
Instagram), will help to drive change by also linking a sustainable component to the market mix (Appendix E –
SWOT Opportunities).
Global Expansion
Global expansion to markets in China, India and Asia-Pacific where there is a larger demographic of
mobile users would greatly help Apple Pay penetrate the market as many individuals travel between countries
for work, visiting family and own properties outside of Canada. Apple Pay expanded to Australia, Spain and
Canada in 2015 by leveraging Apple’s American Express international relationships (Williams, 2015).
American Express has always been considered a leader in international credit card payments. Amex was one of
the first globally recognized payment systems, which makes Apple’s partnership with Amex a strong avenue for
expansion into global markets (Williams, 2015).
Loyalty Programs
According to loyalty statistics from Maritz Canada, 49% of loyalty program participants spend more
after joining a program (Maritz Canada, 2013). Individuals will modify or increase their purchase to gather
more points. Merging Apple Pay with other loyalty programs in Canada, where the payment can also trigger
point collection would be beneficial to both merchants and customers (Appendix G – Loyalty Programs).
Linking the vendor, retailer, and payment system with loyalty programs offers a buy-in win-win with
consumers, where the value offering is in deep alignment with the brand, consumer needs, and building a long-
term customer relationship through Apple Pay (Maritz Canada, 2013).

Incentives
Sharing loyalty points across brands with digital wallet could potentially allow consumers to combine
points with airline, hotel and car booking using Apple Pay. Rewards for frequent usage would also be an
important incentive to drive usage of the application, as well as discounts for fast-laning and early adoption of
new brands (Trend Watching, 2015). Partnering with Aeroplan, Air Miles, Shopper’s Drug Mart and other
loyalty programs to award points for usage and incentivize for use of the payment solution along with affiliate
marketing is useful strategy for Apple Pay in Canada (Maritz Canada, 2013).
Target Audience
In order to increase users, Apple must increase marketing to Millennials and other audiences of value,
like mainstreamers (Perau, 2014). Using Bring Your Own Persona and benefit segmentation would allow Apple
Pay to appeal to a broad spectrum of users and individualize the experience of the mobile wallet (Appendix N –
BYOB). A mass interest marketing mix is also of use to the long-term growth strategy linked to ideas like
“dance”, “find”, “climb” and other activities that use the Apple Watch wearable or iPhone product to access the
Apple Pay service (Perau, 2014).
Another “new” mobile payment system – add social media
Attracting a digital consumer, corporations, merchants and vendors means appealing to a new digital
consumer that is always connected 24/7. Increasing social media adaptation and integration will help with go-
to-market adoption strategies linking Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, Etsy, eBay, Amazon and Pinterest, which
offers a great advantage to the Apple Pay mobile payments platform – transforming it into a digital wallet for
fast-laning and loyalty benefits integration (Appendix E – SWOT Opportunities).
Opportunities Summary
The major opportunity that is next for Apple Pay in their product/service lifecycle introduction and
growth stage is to apply focused regional marketing that leverages the Canadian culture of adventure, goodwill,
and discounts linked to sustainable giving, with the consumer participating to donate first and matching
donation for store, brand and payment system – this interconnected relationship of partnership is a huge part of
the societal marketing mix that can move the brand forward and leverage the “the weekender” culture of
travelling to near-by cities (Parkinson, 2016).
While there are 35 million Canadians +/-, not all of them have credit cards (i.e. children probably
wouldn't have their own credit cards). However, the average number of credit cards per Canadian adult
is 2.2. (Broverman, 2016) So if we look at that and the population of people over 20 (from the 2015
census: http://www.statcan.gc.ca/tables-tableaux/sum-som/l01/cst01/demo10a-eng.htm) which is
roughly 27,996,000, that yields 61,591,200 credit cards in Canada. 8.2% of which is just over five
million Amex Cards (Statistics Canada, 2015).

Threats Overview
The mobile payment industry as a whole faces several threats in Canada (Appendix F). Specifically for
Apple, they need to address the demographic split between their key consumer and the typical American
Express user. Industry wide, there are also concerns about security, technological adaption and consumer need
for the product.
Conflicting Demographics
While Amex has a smaller number of users in Canada than Visa or MasterCard, they have focused on
higher priced purchases rather than a volume-based model like their competitors, yielding an average $130 per
transaction (Trefies, 2014). This conflicts with the current retail locations where Apple Pay in Canada is most
often used, as they are primarily quick, volume, and value-based brands such as Tim Hortons, McDonalds, and
Canadian Tire, which would lend themselves to the demographic most likely to use Visa or MasterCard (Apple
Inc., n.d.).
Technology Adoption - NFC vs MST
Apple Pay uses NFC a relatively new technology that only 25% of all Canadians have the capability of
using (Berman, 2015). This makes Apple Pay a costly addition for a retailer if they don’t have the customer
base to use it (Freeman, Why paying with your smartphone hasn't caught on, 2015). Magnetic Strip Technology
is already in most merchants’ current POS terminals and can be used by Samsung Pay (Freeman, Why paying
with your smartphone hasn't caught on, 2015). This makes Samsung Pay a significant threat for Apple Pay
(Appendix F).
Consumer Value Proposition
The current mobile payment options have yet to take off in Canada, with the adoption numbers being
“hardly noticeable” (Pellegrini, 'Thought it was going to be a big thing': Canadians haven't been so quick to pay
with their smartphones, 2015). There is also a trend in Apple’s key demographic of going consumer debt free,
meaning less and less people are inclined to use their credit card when purchasing items (Vermond, 2012).
Security Threat
Security risks for mobile payments are a growing concern among consumers (Appendix B). Along with
that, multiple security experts have voiced their concerns. In a 2015 survey of 900 experts by the ISACA, only
28 percent felt that mobile payments have the ability to keep information safe, while nearly half of them
outright say mobile payments are unsecure (Dimitrios, C., & Pironti, J. 2015).

Apple will best address these threats in three steps. First, encourage innovators and early adopters to use
the product through exclusive loyalty programs, influencing the early majority to try the product. Second,
accelerate batch negotiations with the major Canadian banks to increase the ease of use at their current retail
options, along with providing NFC terminals to more American Express oriented retailers. Third, there needs to
be a clear and concise showcase of security of the product, backed by independent industry experts.
Recommendations
Our situation analysis above has provided insights into the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and
threats that Apple’s Apple Pay faces in Canada. With lack of real consumer interest to switch from chip and tap
technology, Apple Pay must bring to the table a unique digital wallet that creates a seamless user experience to
complete multiple tasks during a day. While 52% of Canadians are comfortable with digital payments and
spend on average $95 per transaction, Apple Pay has a lot of market share to gain in Canada (Ng, 2014). India
and China are first to market for full adoption of Apple Pay with the US a distant third and Canada as a laggard
for adoption (Milner, 2015). There does not seem to be a driving need to change payment methods; consumers
don’t actually know about Apple Pay and 30% of consumers are actually satisfied with their current payment
methods of payment (Appendix 0 – Apple Pay User Information).
Canada tends to be a technology laggard as a country (Milner, 2015). Canadians like using Facebook to
socialize more than any other country in the world (Grewal, Levy, Lichti, & Persaud, Marketing: 3rd Canadian
Edition, 2015), and Apple Pay did not grab hold of this social media opportunity to promote the shift in digital
payment momentum. Apple Pay could use targeted regional sponsorships to create a marketing campaign over
the summer months and partner with banks to drive stories and conversations along with charities. Canadians
are crazy about giving back.
Core Recommendations - Actions
• Experiential marketing guerilla marketing tactics with a clear strategy for regional market
penetration (e.g. pop-up restaurant terminal POS and iPad support at concerts would help drive
familiarity and deeper adoption).
1. Maximize Strengths | Social media integration that captures user behavior and provides deeper
consumer relationship building opportunities using online contests, Twitter parties to win money
at participating merchants, advertising on Facebook and Twitter. Assisting businesses with
driving higher loyalty and transactions with fast-laning (Trend Watching, 2015).
2. Leverage Opportunities | Loyalty Program API integration with consumers, merchants, banks,
and other forms of payment.
3. Minimize Weaknesses | Sponsorship of tourism, charities and major events in Canada focused
on societal marketing mix by partnering with Canadian banks sponsorship programs (i.e. RBC’s
Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) partnership by providing iPads and wearable Apple
Watches to support teams at kiosks throughout festival). This type of partnership will encourage
a cross-channel merchant and consumer adoption brand awareness strategy during the growth
phase. 32% of digital wallet users are not familiar with how Apple Pay works (Appendix 0 –
Apple Pay User Information). Charity Partnership with Canadian banks, credit unions & other
credit cards (i.e. Scotiabanks Giller Prize author awards linked with Indigo/Chapters) to drive

early adopters to recognize and adopt the Apple Pay system during an awareness campaign of
(Appendix M – Product Lifecycle Phases).
4. Address Threats | Merchant Benefit Segment (B2B) strategy to engage data sharing and
consumer insights as incentives to partner by linking up with big loyalty programs like Aeroplan,
Air Miles and Shopper’s Optimum program. Consumer Benefit Segment (B2C) strategy needs to
provide a reason to use by linking with highly emotional events like concerts or charity event that
links a sporting activity and daily life journey in the customer lifetime value models for each
target segment.
Benefit segmentation appears to be the global product and service approach for Apple, specifically
Apple Pay as it involves using an iPhone 6. There is no clear benefit strategy to target Canadian consumers or
merchants using interest-based marketing. This needs to change or conversion will continue to stall. The clear
reason for banks and merchants to work with Apple Pay is that 40% of smartphone users in Canada own an
iPhone and will eventually upgrade to an iPhone 6 (Berman, 2015).
There's certainly a lot of money to be made. According to Gartner, the global market for mobile
payments will be worth $720 billion in transactions by 2017 – up from about $235 billion in
2014 (Wolpin, 2015).
Deeper alignment with the benefit segmentation approach of ease of use, multi-functional needs are met
for daily life, fun, safe and secure using a marketing campaign whereby regional emotional brand experiences
are planned nationally would be beneficial to adoption and conversion of the 28,700,000 million laggards that
missed out on the “Amex” only launch (Statistics Canada, 2015). Once Apple finishes its batch negotiations
with Canadian banks in 2016 to allow their credit cards to be used by Apple Pay, consumer demand will grow.
Recommendations Summary
Creating a reason to use Apple Pay at concerts, major tourism attractions, golf events, and other sporting
events this summer will grow adoption and usage. Linking Apple Pay with benefits of being safe, secure, and
fun to use would help consumers see the benefits of using this service. Street guerilla cult marketing tactics can
help Apple Pay stand out as a brand that is in line with the Canadian technology jump in behavior to use devices
at checkout such as smartphones, wearable watches, and other wristband type sports gear (Trend Watching,
2015). Apple Pay has the opportunity to link itself with creative entrepreneurism and support small business
owners. Sponsoring or creating pop-up restaurants using Apple Pay – such as street vendor restaurants or
honing in on the culture of collectivity by having free food trucks at popular running events and marathons like
the Tough Mudder competition – responds to the global trend to get fit, active and mix social giving (Tough
Mudder, 2016). Being a merchant transactions vendor of choice for arts, sports and other events sponsored by
major banks is an actionable opportunity for Apple to create partners for its Apple Pay payment service, for
example at the Toronto International Film Festival. Most event planners and affiliate sponsors would not turn
down Apple as a partner. Finally, Apple needs to get active in Canadian communities city by city.

Diffusion
of
Innovation
Adopter
Category
(Wikipedia, n.d.)
Adopter
category
Definition
Innovators
Innovators are willing to take risks, have the highest social status, have financial liquidity,
are social and have closest contact to scientific sources and interaction with other
innovators. Their risk tolerance allows them to adopt technologies that may ultimately fail.
Financial resources help absorb these failures.
Early
adopters
These individuals have the highest degree of opinion leadership among the adopter categories.
Early adopters have a higher social status, financial liquidity, advanced education and are
more socially forward than late adopters. They are more discreet in adoption choices than
innovators. They use judicious choice of adoption to help them maintain a central
communication position.
Early
Majority
They adopt an innovation after a varying degree of time that is significantly longer than the
innovators and early adopters. Early Majority have above average social status, contact with
early adopters and seldom hold positions of opinion leadership in a system (Rogers 1962,
p. 283)
Late
Majority
They adopt an innovation after the average participant. These individuals approach an
innovation with a high degree of skepticism and after the majority of society has adopted the
innovation. Late Majority are typically skeptical about an innovation, have below average
social status, little financial liquidity, in contact with others in late majority and early majority
and little opinion leadership.
Laggards
They are the last to adopt an innovation. Unlike some of the previous categories, individuals
in this category show little to no opinion leadership. These individuals typically have an
aversion to change-agents. Laggards typically tend to be focused on "traditions", lowest social
status, lowest financial liquidity, oldest among adopters, and in contact with only family and
close friends. (Wikipedia, n.d.)
