HOUSTON, March 27, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Seventy-two
of Fuddruckers company-owned fast casual restaurants throughout the
country are now accepting Apple Pay, a new category of service that
transforms mobile payments with an easy, secure and private way to
pay.
According to Peter Tropoli, Chief
Operating Officer of Luby's, Inc., "We're excited to provide Apple
Pay, a convenience-oriented technology that pairs perfectly with
our award-winning, fast casual fare."
Security and privacy is at the core of Apple Pay. When you
add a credit or debit card to Apple Pay, the actual card numbers
are not stored on the device, nor on Apple servers. Instead,
a unique Device Account Number is assigned, encrypted and securely
stored in the Secure Element on your device. Each transaction
is authorized with a one-time unique dynamic security code, instead
of using the security code from the back of your card.
Apple Pay is easy to set up, and users will continue to receive
all of the rewards and benefits offered by credit and debit
cards. Apple Pay works with iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus and upon
availability, Apple Watch. For more information, visit
www.apple.com/apple-pay.
Since 1980, Fuddruckers has been obsessed with making the world
happier, one great hamburger at a time. Grilled-to-order
burgers feature always fresh and never frozen, 100% USDA
premium-cut beef with no fillers or additives. Delicious,
sesame-topped buns are baked from scratch on-site throughout the
day to achieve the perfect combination of crisp crust and
melt-in-your-mouth texture.
And while burgers are the signature, the engaging menu offers
variety for many tastes with an array of sandwiches, platters and
salads. No matter what they choose, customers can customize
their meal with a trip to the legendary Build Your Own produce bar,
which features fantastic fixings like sun-ripened tomatoes,
lettuce, sliced onions, dill pickles, pico de gallo and classic
cheese sauce.
