I just had an experience with Apple Pay that makes me think that, at some point, you will want to add it as a payment option.

I'm not even sure why I have Apple Pay set up on my iPhone, I think I needed to do it once to buy movie tickets.  Anyway last night I was reading news on my phone in bed at 1 a.m. (don't we all) and an ad was there for a money clip / mini wallet thing that I looked at once before, but they were pretty expensive.  But it was a while back that I checked it out, so I clicked the ad to see if there was anything new.  I saw that they had their least expensive $69.95 product on sale for $19.95 due to some cosmetic blemishes.  This is a product that I've wondered if I'd like, but didn't want to spend so much money in order to find out, so I figured - here's my chance to try it for 20 bucks.

So I put one in my cart, and went to Checkout, and now it was time to enter my name and email and delivery information, that I really didn't feel like typing in on my iPhone at 1 a.m.  And I recalled seeing an Apple Pay link on the cart page, so I returned there and clicked that.  It then displayed my default payment method, billing address, and shipping address, and the cost for the cheapest delivery method - with of course options to change all.  Everything was fine so I gave it my thumbprint and Done!

In order to buy this product from a vendor I wasn't registered with, I literally put it in my cart, pressed Apply Pay, looked at the dropdown list of delivery methods in case there was one I liked better than the default (there wasn't), and touched the Home button.  And the vendor got an impulse sale that I probably would not have completed had I been required to type in my address and credit card details.
