Apple Pay launch partner Bank of America on Thursday revealed that nearly 800,000 of its customers had signed up for Apple’s nascent mobile payments initiative, bringing 1.1 million cards to the service in the last three months. Those figures represent a small fraction of Bank of America’s nearly 60 million customers, but they are encouraging numbers given the relative newness of the platform. The bank revealed the statistics in its quarterly earning statement, though no details regarding Apple Pay transaction volume or active versus registered users were provided.
