Whether it’s looking for your wallet, not having cash, or not finding your student ID, buying anything on campus has always been a struggle. Well, not anymore. Recently, SMU decided to add Apple Pay and Google Wallet to all restaurants and stores on campus.
Apple Pay and Google Wallet are mobile payment systems that allow users to store their debit, credit, gift, and other cards on their phones.
“Everyone can pay by just scanning their phones,” says SMU store cashier Eric Hill.
SMU offers many dining and shopping opportunities on campus, such as Café 100, The Market, Mac’s Place, and Einstein Bros Bagels.
“I forgot my pony card so I used Apple Pay to get my coffee at Café 100. It was super convenient,” said SMU junior Sabrina Abbas.
SMU also has a mobile app for Mac’s Place, where students are able to order their food before pickup.
