Kohl's has announced that customers will now be able to earn rewards points when using their Kohl's credit card with Apple Pay. Yes2You program points will be accrued in the same tap as a payment from a Kohl's Charge credit card, the first time such a program has been integrated with Apple Pay.
From Kohl's:
"Kohl's is blending the physical and digital shopping experiences in more ways than ever before. Offering conveniences to Kohl's customers that make it easy for them – like a seamless one-tap checkout in Apple Pay that integrates our value-driven Yes2You Rewards loyalty program – is one of the ways that we are leading as an omnichannel retailer," said Ratnakar Lavu, Kohl's chief technology officer.
The ability to add store credit cards to Apple Pay arrived last year in iOS 9, and Kohl's was one of the first retailers to offer compatibility with its cards. Kohl's support for earning Yes2You rewards with Apple Pay is currently available in 250 of the retailer's locations, and is expected to roll out across the chain by the end of the month.
