JCPenney Removes Apple Pay Support From Its Retail Stores and Mobile App

The option to use Apple Pay at checkout in the JCPenney iOS app has been removed, reports Appleosophy, catching many mobile shoppers off guard. The retailer began trialing Apple Pay in late 2015, before rolling it out to all of its stores across the United States and adding support for the payment method to its app for iPhone and iPad shortly after. JCPenney also made its credit card available on Apple Pay, enabling customers to earn shopping points through its JCPenney Rewards loyalty program, directly in the Wallet app on iPhone.
