That sounds pretty neat, but I personally don't want anymore apps on my phone. I wish that I could trust companies to not access my information. It's not like I'm big on privacy, but I know that companies are short-sighted and will do whatever they can to increase their quarterly profits at any legal expense. Since I don't want to spend my time trying to figure out which apps are using my data and how, I just avoid installing them to begin with. I also don't eat fast food enough to have all of these apps installed, so it's not like I'm missing out on a major convenience. This concludes my unsolicited Ted Talk.
Sir, this is a Wendy's.
Yeah I feel the same.
So at least on an iPhone (I think Android does this too if I recall from when I had my Pixel 3XL) the payment uses a one-time use card number if you use Apple Pay; I didn’t have to sign up for an account, and the Taco Bell app only has my email & first name (pretty sure you can give a fake email too as it asks you to enter name/email each time if you have no account), and that’s it. The friggin’ Taco Bell app has less of my data than most apps actually.
I actually installed it as a joke (my wife hates Taco Bell), and ended up liking the ordering process, go figure… it’s fun for a once in a blue moon fast food order.
