Apple gave last night the results of its second fiscal quarter of 2014, and services company have staged a raise. iTunes, for example, already has 800 million user accounts. And most of them linked to a credit card. 

This is an increase of 225 million accounts in just one year, thanks to strong sales of iOS devices in Brazil or China. These accounts have been downloaded more than 70,000 million applications, accounting for 10% of total company revenue. Proceeds from purchases of other catalogs (iTunes Store, iBooks Store, etc.) amount to 4.573 million dollars.

Another statistic that reflects the sales of these devices, namely the iPad, is that your web traffic is four times the sum of all Android tablets. Needless to say, the potential of all these devices and all those iTunes accounts for future payment system: Tim Cook has already admitted that the TouchID iPhone 5S sensor was made with a view to that system, and this year we could see how to lead these plans before PayPal and Google Wallet rival. 

One last fact helps us to see the huge numbers of Apple: no operator having many credit cards among its customer base worldwide. As to not use it, right? It must be attentive to the event WWDC.
