7-Eleven is testing a new way for customers to pay for items as they shop at 7-Eleven retail locations.
The Scan & Pay feature is being added to the 7-Eleven mobile app. Customers will need to install the app and sign up for the 7Rewards loyalty program in order to gain access to the feature.
When customers are near a store that supports Scan & Pay, the “start scanning” option will appear within the app. Customers can then scan their items through the app as they go, adding items to their virtual basket.
The app supports Apple Pay, Google Pay, or credit/debit cards for completing the transaction. Once customers have paid, the app generates a QR code that shoppers scan at the confirmation station before they can leave with their items.
7-Eleven is piloting this feature at just 14 stores in the Dallas area. It expects to expand availability of Scan & Pay over time.
