(Contactless payments are eventually supposed to be rolled out to the gas stations as well). I highly doubt anyone cares if JCPenney accepts them or not.

The Costco credit card can be used as a contactless payment card so that's why you see so many people use it there. In fact, most of the time the cashier scans your credit card for membership number and then taps it on the credit card reader as a favor to the customer for payment.
