Zapper. The rewarding way to pay.
I used this app to close my tab at a restaurant last weekend in Denver. It was convenient and easy to use. The app also has a built-in loyalty program for the restaurant.The app has a map to find other locations nearby using Zapper. One of the locations near my work sent me a 10% off promotion if I use the app any day next week during lunch at their restaurant. I will definitely continue using this app.

Loving the continuous updates to the app, especially the ability to scan parking tickets. I had no idea that the app could scan barcodes, no more waiting in line to pay for parking at Gateway.
Be warned does not work it’s Rubbish and a con

Just does not work. Tried to buy online from Dischem on the weekend kept saying my internet was slow which is nonsense! Just went on and on with no progress made. Result high stress and irritation.We returned to the web page and bought the products using the direct EFT option. Right after this we watched a online 4 k movie! So bandwidth not the issue. More like the APP JUST DOES NOT WORK.Of course these people have my card data know so this has left me feeling very worried. Avoid!

Please note that there was a reported National Outage on MWEB - Affected Users: Merchants on ADSL or FIBRE with MWEB Services - No time to Resolution - Merchants to fall back on SMS Confirmation protocol please. Incident will be placed into monitoring state. Zapper does not store your card details / data. It is all encrypted so no need to feel worried.
