SEATTLE – Starbucks Coffee Company has made its Mobile Order & Pay on iOS and Android devices available nationwide after successful launches earlier this year in select U.S. cities. The new feature of the popular Starbucks mobile app allows customers to place and pay for their order in advance of their visit and pick it up at a participating Starbucks location.

Mobile ordering is emerging as the fastest and easiest way for Starbucks customers to order ahead, then pay and pick up their purchases—providing on-the-go customers a simple and quick alternative to get their favorite food or beverage item. Starbucks plans to introduce this feature in select company owned stores in the United Kingdom and Canada in October.

“Bringing Mobile Order and Pay to our customers is about meeting their needs of convenience and customization at any time of the day” said Adam Brotman, Starbucks chief digital officer, in a press release. “The fact that it also represents the fastest technology application rollout we have ever done is indicative of the strength of our digital ecosystem, how well it has been received by both our customers and store partners and the impact we think it can have on the future of retail.”

Following the initial test of Mobile Order & Pay in Portland, Oregon, in December 2014, and subsequent launch across the Pacific Northwest in March 2015, Starbucks expanded the program to 3,400 additional stores across 17 states earlier this summer. With this week’s announcement, the app can be used at any of the company-owned U.S. locations.
