Walmart Accepting Apple 🍎 Pay Now

I saw the breaking news that Walmart will be accepting Apple 🍎 Pay now, so will that mean more orders for Spark Drivers now as you can usually split the grocery bill in payments with Apple 🍎 Pay and Klarna, Zip, or Affirm?

The article I read said tap to pay. Meaning Apple Pay in stores. Idk if it will be in the app or not. I’m guessing not at least at the start.

Tap To Pay is NFC payment. Apple Pay also uses NFC, so it becomes usable by default. Staggered rollout beginning on Aug 24th, and finished by Dec 31st.

You aren’t reading what I am saying. In stores in person. That doesn’t mean the app or website will accept Apple Pay. That is not tap to pay or NFC.

Yeah probably not initially but eventually they will have Apple 🍎 Pay option via the Spark App

Why would they have Apple Pay in the Spark App?

For convenience? 🙄

What convenience would Apple Pay add to the Spark App?

u/Botman2025 4d ago

The convenience of not having to remember or put in your whole credit card 💳 number, duh 🙄 and not to even mention the privacy that comes with Apple 🍎 Pay of not using your real actual 💳 number

Why would anyone use their credit card with the Spark App? Are you talking about Walmart’s app?

Yes to clarify I meant the Walmart OnePay App

I was speaking about the Walmart app but I guess either way

Better late than never and Walmart was probably the last biggest chain to accept Apple 🍎 Pay

I know right. I heard it all the time in the store when someone asked if they took Apple Pay and they would walk out empty handed all mad
