Sign up for Store Loyalty Cards and Coupons
Apple announced last month that Apple Pay itself will also gain the ability to let users sign up for store loyalty cards right within the Wallet app, all in a single tap. This will be done with NFC tags in the stores, and could do away with the headache of having to spell out all of your information at retailers.
In addition to signing up for store loyalty cards, NFC tags strategically placed around a store could offer users more information on products or even discount coupons for their purchases when scanned.
Several retailers are already preparing to set this up later this year, including Dairy Queen, Dave & Buster’s, Caribou Coffee, Panera Bread, Yogurtland, and Jimmy John’s Gourmet Sandwiches.
