Target launches payment system within its app
Target is introducing a new way for consumers to pay for their purchases while never having to leave the company’s app. The Minneapolis-based retailer has launched Wallet in the Target app.
With Wallet, consumers can pay for purchases using their Target REDcard and find savings with Cartwheel — all within a single scan of their phones at checkout, the company said.
“Wallet in the Target app makes checkout easier and faster than ever,” said Mike McNamara, Target’s chief information and digital officer. “Guests are going to love the convenience of having payment, Cartwheel offers, Weekly Ad coupons and gift cards all in one place with Wallet.”
Checkout is four times faster than any other payment type, the company said. Along with being able to search for savings, this new service also will combine digital savings, offer Weekly Ad coupons with the 5% REDcard discount and allow gift cards to be redeemed in the near future. Wallet is currently available on both Android and iOS versions of the Target app.
