Apple Pay, which launched in the UK in July, is now fully incorporated into InPlayer, thereby making it possible for video publishers to let users accessing video via their iPhone, iPad or Mac to make payments directly from their Apple account without having to enter their credit card details.
In addition to Apple Pay, InPlayer already accepts transactions using all major credit cards; PayPal; direct debit; including some local payment methods such as Ideal in the Netherlands.
