Paying for your daily double-double fix at Tim Hortons just got a lot easier today. The company announced that mobile payments via its TimmeMe app will be accepted across locations Canada and the United States (3,610 and 870 respectively). The new technology essentially lets you register a prepaid Tim Card on the TimmyMe app and then simply scan the app’s barcode when it comes time to pay for your order. The company hopes that mobile payments will both improve speed of service and enhance the customer experience.
“Tim Hortons is committed to offering the ultimate guest experience, and that includes leveraging technology to offer our guests faster, convenient service. The launch of mobile barcode payments with Passbook support lets us do just that,” said David Clanachan, Chief Operating Officer, Tim Hortons. “Our guests can now use their iPhone and iPad to make secure, quick and easy payments, which we hope will make their visit, coffee and meal with us even more enjoyable.”
The TimmyMe app also now supports Passbook on iOS devices, making it easier to access your Tim Card from the home screen on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.
The TimmyMe app is available for Android, BlackBerry and iOS devices through their respective app stores.
