RadioShack will launch Apple Pay next week at more than 900 locations in five key markets, with more rollouts planned next year. The Fort Worth-based electronics retailer offer the mobile wallet solution in Manhattan, Washington, D.C., Chicago, Los Angeles and San Francisco.

“RadioShack is proud to be one of the select retailers debuting this exciting new payment option from Apple,” said Joe Magnacca, CEO at RadioShack. “As part of our commitment to put customers first, we want to provide additional payment options that take advantage of new solutions and make the process easier for the customer.
