What do you mean "planning"? They already are in some places, including Apple Stores themselves. But more often you see iPads in that role with a bigger screen for customers. Are they doing the same behavior? (I don't see why not).
For the moment they have an external payment / card terminal; other than the card reader itself, I don't see why an iphone wouldn't work as a formal payment terminal.

Banks are now offering it to one-person trade companies etc [2].
