One of Apple's competitors in the mobile payment space sent out an email Wednesday telling users it had been breached.

CurrentC, which is a mobile payment system backed by the Mercantile Exchange (MCX), sent out an email to its pilot users stating that an unauthorized third party had obtained email addresses of some of its users, the MCX confirmed to CNBC in an email statement.

Apple Pay has a loyalty program that could launch sooner than expected.

Rumors began swirling in mid-August of an Apple rewards plan. Initially anticipated for release in October 2015 to possibly coincide with Apple Pay 2.0, 2014’s holiday shopping season may offer the first glimpse of loyalty rewards for Apple Pay users. Recent reports cite increased market demand has pushed forward the program’s roll out date.

The Apple Pay rewards system is anticipated to link with iBeacon technology. Introduced in 2013, iBeacons use a combination of Bluetooth Low Energy and Wi-Fi to transmit data to nearby store specific apps which then alert smartphones with coupons or additional product information. Apple’s reward program would likely offer exclusive discounts and promotions for consumers making Apple Pay transactions.
