Save on Foods (BC) didn't work for me at the self check-out. Just says card not accepted when I try to tap with the watch.

Nope not for me anyways. I get an error stating to use another form of payment.

Whole Foods doesn't support Amex tap to pay. (Apple Pay)! At least in Markham hwy 7 location.

The cashier told me after I tried!

I used it inside - had to grab a coffee ;)

not sure if this was brought up before, but I used my Amex apple pay in Canada on a TD point of sale machine at Longo's and it went thru.

Looks like the TD pos supports Apple Pay finally. So Apple Pay might be coming and TD posted on Twitter to check for updates on their web site for any new mobile payments solutions.

Let's hope.

FWIW, I was able to pay for my parking at the airport in London with my Capital One VISA via Apple Pay.

Oh, and it's a United States-issued Capital One VISA, too.

Also successfully paid with my U.S. MasterCard (USAA - a military bank) at Timmy's in London and the ones at the OnRoute centres on the 401 between London and Windsor. New York Fries at OnRoute also accepted my U.S. MasterCard.

Just tried to add Apple Pay to my Capital One MasterCard for about the fifth time. Turns out Capital One is still in the dark ages. Annoying when Canadian Tire MC and American Express register perfectly. Stuck with Capital One because of the exclusive deal with Costco. Really dumb to be held so far back on Costco's part.

Same with CIBC petro points MasterCard.

Still can't add it. Supposedly there is an issue with petro points but 8 months you'd think they would fix the issue by now. NO!
