The
banks have deployed engineers to build the Apple Pay options,
TechCrunch reported on Thursday, citing a person familiar with
the matter.
BofA told Reuters it is currently working on a new cardless ATM
solution, and plans to unveil it in late February to associates
at select ATMs in Silicon Valley, San Francisco, Charlotte, New
York and Boston, followed by a broader customer launch mid-year.
It is unclear how Apple Pay will work at ATMs, TechCrunch said.
Apple declined to comment.
Wells Fargo, which currently supports Google's Android Pay
mobile wallet, said it is in plans to roll out technology to
connect ATMs to digital wallets in the second quarter of this
year.
The bank also said, in an e-mail, that it is evaluating
additional wallets.
JPMorgan Chase & Co also has plans to roll out card-free ATMs
this year, CNBC reported on Tuesday.
