ATB has been marketing its Apple Pay support with some impressive campaigns, such as this cool 9-minute long movie projected against ATB Place in Edmonton. The bank recently shared another video of the movie from different angles, filmed by drone, which you can check out below:

TD, Scotiabank and BMO recently updated their iOS apps to support Apple Pay, set to debut in June. We’re hearing it could be as soon as tomorrow for BMO, so stay tuned.

So far, Apple Pay adoption has been positive for banks, as CIBC announced last week adoption has been “quite strong”.

So until they launched this you could add your ATB card to ?Pay and pay at retailers POS systems but not in apps on the iPhone?
