Apple, you tried so hard and for so long to make me sign up for Apple Pay. In iOS 13, you
even went so far as to tie the setup of the new operating system to your beloved Apple Pay.
So I signed up for it because I wanted to finally. Shut. You. Up.
I figured that having it didn't mean I had to use it. Oh, but I DID have to use it.
And thanks to Jersey Mike's, I now appreciate Apple Pay.
Jersey Mike's sandwich shop is a place where my family and I pretty much always get
the same things. I ordered from there online once, and the site suggested I'd receive
some sort of reward for using their mobile app... so I downloaded it, and used it the next
time I placed an order. The app allowed me to mark the order as a favorite, so on future
orders I'd just find the favorite and all would be set.
Six taps.
Six taps and a double-click is all it took to order sandwiches from there today.
The double-click was the payment part, through Apple Pay.
And now I appreciate it. Now I get it. Using Apple Pay was SUPER easy. I had the
entire order done in 30 seconds. Again, six taps and a double-click is all that
stood between me and a #9, Mike's Way, no onions.
