For those who feel that fetching their own takeout food is something that is a real task, then the ordering process which can speed things up is something that a lot of us would appreciate it. There are various apps that are available nowadays which can make things easy for you. There are iOS apps like Seamless and Grubhub which provide such services as well as allow you to make payments with services like Apple Pay.
It has been estimated by TechCrunch that instead of a credit card, the use of Apple Pay will save at least a minute of your time for every order that you make. A lot of efforts have been put in by the company to ensure that the Apple Pay services are available for all their users across the world. While the expansion plans are also being worked upon, Apple is trying to get more banks and retailers onboard their list of Apple Pay supporters. Outside the US, there are a few challenges that are being faced by the payment service of Apple.
Due to expansion plans of Apple Pay being pushed to various other countries such as Singapore, the rapid growth could be one of the reasons why this is happening. On a weekly basis, millions of new users are being added by the company, this is resulting in the growth of the transaction volumes also. In comparison to last year, there has been a growth of 500% already. Grubhub stated that through their mobile app, around out of the $2.4 B food sales order annually, around 60% of that amount it is placed through their app. You can download the Seamless and Grubhub app free from iTunes. Recently an update was rolled out by them which allowed their customers to make payments for their food orders through Apple Pay.
