Apple routinely runs promotions like this that raise awareness of Apple Pay and get people used to taking advantage of it. Apple Pay is particularly useful during a pandemic because it's contactless – something that's beneficial right now for obvious reasons.
Apple Pay, which lives inside the Wallet app, keeps all your credit cards, debit cards, store cards, and loyalty cards safe and secure on your iPhone or iPad. With Apple Pay you can use your Apple Card, Visa, Mastercard, American Express card, or Discover Card at any store that accepts tap-to-pay, or in any app that incorporates it. With Wallet, you can also board a plane, scan for your coffee, get into a movie or concert, accumulate loyalty points, and more. All right from your lock screen or with the tap of an icon.
