We heard about the Square partnership with Starbucks, which is a great news for Square as well as for customers. Square is a great payment method for mobile phones without having to use credit or debit cards. Once you enable the Square app for your iOS or Android phones, then it is easy to use Square at a number of retail locations. With Starbucks addition, Square can be used at even more number of locations.
The only question was how will this affect those who already have loyalty or reward cards (Gold Membership), customers have with Starbucks. For now, we can't, it seems according to TechCrunch:
For those of you who currently use the Starbucks app to reap rewards, you may want to stick with it, as loyalty programs between Starbucks and Pay with Square will remain separate for the time being.
In the future, Starbucks and Square will probably integrate those features together, so we don't have to use two apps for it.
Square already has rewards program option like the one shown below in their payment procedure, so most likely we can see this feature with Starbucks and Square very soon.
