Chase hopes you’ll use its shopping app instead of Apple Pay

Chase Pay's inescapable QR code

You might think that the future of phone-based shopping belongs to tap-to-pay services like Apple Pay and Android Pay. However, Chase begs to differ. The banking giant has unveiled Chase Pay, a mobile app that uses your credit, debit or prepaid card to make purchases through CurrentC. And yes, that means what you think it does… both good and bad. It’ll let you take advantage of loyalty programs and even pay by scanning some receipts, but you’ll also have to make many payments by scanning QR codes. As it stands, you’ll have to be patient — Chase Pay won’t be available until mid-2016.
