Since Apple Pay makes our lives easier when it comes to shopping, we are interested in using it even to buy food and medicines.
Albertsons is a supermarket that sells a wide variety of products, so it was only expected that we would want to use Apple Pay for our purchases.
Does Albertsons accept Apple Pay?
Since 2017, Albertsons Companies Inc. accepts Apple Pay as a payment method in all its branches. Like many other corporations, they have decided to take this form of payment because of its security and privacy.
The card number, either credit or debit, found in the app is not stored on the device or Apple’s servers. Instead of being stored, your card is assigned a unique device account number, which is encrypted to preserve the security of your device.
In addition, each transaction made through the app has a unique dynamic security code. So it was only natural that a company as large as Albertsons would opt for this payment method.
How can I use my Apple Pay app at Albertsons?
If you have an iPhone 6, a later model, or an Apple Watch, you already have Apple Pay to use the app for in-store or online purchases.
First, make sure your credit or debit card is added to your device’s Wallet. To achieve this, log in to the app and select the “+” icon in the upper right corner of the screen.
Now you must take a picture of the card you want to add and manually enter the data requested for your card. Your card has now been added, and a unique number has been assigned.
How can I use Apple Pay at Albertsons stores?
If you shop in one of the stores with your iPhone, you should quickly double-tap the button on the right side of your phone when you are at the checkout.
Open your Apple Pay app with Touch ID, Face ID, or your password, and then use your device at the payment terminal or card reader. At the end of the transaction, you will see the purchase reflected in your account statement.
You must double-tap the button on the right side of your watch using your Apple Watch. Likewise, you must enter the access code.
Join the watch to the payment terminal or card reader and wait for the transaction to finish. Done! You have completed your first purchase at Albertsons through Apple Pay.
How can I use Apple Pay on Albertson’s apps?
Apple Pay is accepted on all Albertson’s apps, from OneTouch Fuel, Pharmacy, Deals & Delivery to Delivery & Pickup and Rush Delivery.
To make your online purchase, you must first download the app. You can download it through the official Albertsons website or the App Store. Once you have the app, log in and select the products you want to buy. Once selected, go to the payment section.
The only difference when paying with Apple Pay is that you must select the “Apple Pay” option in the payment method. After choosing it, you will have completed your transaction.
Can I also use Apple Pay at Albertson’s gas stations?
All gas stations with Near-Field Communication (NFC) technology accept Apple Pay as a payment method. Just follow the steps explained above.
