A new rumor claims that Apple (AAPL) Pay may launch on Oct. 18.
According to a report, Apple Stores are preparing for the launch of Apple Pay. Employees at Apple Stores will reportedly attend a training session in the next few days that will go over the service, reports Mashable.
Another report claims that Walgreens (WAG) managers have been sent a memo to expect Apple pay as soon as Oct. 18. The feature will allow users to tap their iOS devices on payment terminals and verify their identity with their fingerprint, Mashable notes.
