This new mobile payments service and the companion Android app only work in Starbucks and Best Buy retail locations in the US for now, but Chase Pay has plans to reach other retailers in the future, including Walmart, Shell gas stations, and more.
When talking about mobile payment systems, there are quite a few choices waiting for the US-based potential customers. Next to big names like Apple Pay, Android Pay, Samsung Pay, or Walmart Pay, US bank Chase is now launching its system. Dubbed Chase Pay, it comes with a companion app that works with Android devices and can be freely downloaded via Google Play.
According to the official press release, this new digital payment solution works online, in stores, and also via the Chase Pay app. For now, it can be used in "more than 7,500 participating Starbucks® locations in the U.S. and nearly 1,400 Best Buy® stores." Customers will get support for more merchants in the future - Philips 66, Conoco, Walmart, ShopRite, select Shell stations, and more can be found in the list already.
The Chase Pay app allows its users to pay with a smartphone, check Chase account balances and available credit, as well as viewing the transactions performed during the last 90 days.

In my early school days, I hated writing and having to make up stories. A decade later, I started to enjoy it. Since then, I published a few offline articles and then I moved to the online space, where I contributed to major websites that are still present online as of 2021 such as Softpedia, Brothersoft, Download3000, but I also wrote for multiple blogs that have disappeared over the years. I've been riding with the Notebookcheck crew since 2013 and I am not planning to leave it anytime soon. In love with good mechanical keyboards, vinyl and tape sound, but also smartphones, streaming services, and digital art.
