In 2013 PayPal was trusted with over £76.8 billion from merchants, and is fulfilling a major role in how payments are made online which were previously only held by major banks and credit card companies. They also have methods for accepting card payments via chip and pin, therefore Apples decision to exclude third party apps from accessing the NFC chip in the latest iPhones means that iOS users will have to use Apple Pay should they feel the need for contactless payment.
