Does Taco Bell Take Apple Pay? (2023)

By Amy Spitzfaden Both Updated 01/17/2023

Does Taco Bell accept Apple Pay? It does! Best of all, you can use Apple Pay in any of the three ways you can purchase from Taco Bell: in-store, at the drive-thru, and through the app. Here is how to use Apple Pay at Taco Bell.

Does Taco Bell Have Apple Pay?

Taco Bell takes Apple Pay at all of its points of sale: in-store, drive-thru, and its app. If you're physically inside a Taco Bell, you just have to hold your iPhone near the reader when you're ready to pay, then use Face ID to confirm the sale. The drive-thru can be a bit trickier; if you didn't order ahead of time, you'll need to lean out the window to hold your iPhone near the reader and position yourself in a way that Face ID can work. But you can also use Apple Pay in the Taco Bell app, and then pick up your order in-store or at the drive-thru. Read on to find out how.
