In other e-Payment and e-Commerce News: Apple Pay could bring in anywhere from $300 million to $700 million in U.S. revenue in three to four years, depending on how fast Apple's (NASDAQ:AAPL) share of credit-card transactions done with mobile phones grows, analysts say. Speculation over Apple's revenue generation from Apple Pay has continued since the iPhone 6 launch earlier this month. 

Apple's push into mobile e-payments isn't expected to power earnings growth, but Apple Pay could prompt more consumers to use mobile digital wallets. Banks, not retailers, will pay Apple. Apple Pay supports credit and debit cards from the three major payment networks: American Express (NYSE:AXP), MasterCard (NYSE:MA) and Visa (NYSE:V). 

According to one report, Apple stands to garner 15 cents for each $100 in transactions. It may negotiate better rates from smaller financial companies, analysts say. Read More At: http://news.investors.com/technology/092414-718756-apple-pay-revenue-stream-analyst-estimates.htm#ixzz3EFuNIkJm 

Alibaba Group Holding Limited's (NYSE: BABA) initial public offering was the world's largest, raising an estimated $25 billion and netting underwriters more than $300 million. With overwhelming demand for the shares, the stock surged nearly 40% in its trading debut on Friday, signaling renewed investor appetite in Internet stocks and renewed confidence in China's troubled equity market. Yahoo! Inc. (NASDAQ:YHOO) could become a big winner if Alibaba's stock continues to see success. As an early financier of Alibaba, the company owns some 401 million shares in the Chinese e-commerce giant. Yahoo has already sold 27 million shares during Alibaba's IPO - netting it $7 billion in cash - but investors are now wondering what the plan is for the rest of the stockpile.
