SAN ANTONIO, TX - H-E-B recently announced the phased rollout of its digital tap-to-pay service across all stores, enhancing the shopping experience for customers throughout Texas.

“At H-E-B, we’re always exploring a broad range of technologies to enhance how customers shop and pay for products,” said Ashwin Nathan, H-E-B Group Vice President of Marketing and Payments. “This has been one of the most requested services we have received from our customers and partners, and we are excited to now make this popular technology available at all our H-E-B locations.”

Starting October 7, 2023, H-E-B commenced the rollout, allowing customers to use digital tap-to-pay options, including Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, and Google Pay. The implementation began in the San Antonio area, with plans to extend the service to various regions across Texas and Mi Tienda stores in Houston throughout the month.

Customers could utilize tap-to-pay not only at cash registers and self-checkout lanes but also at H-E-B restaurants and pharmacies.

According to a press release, the introduction of tap-to-pay services follows a successful implementation at H-E-B's Central Market and Joe V’s Smart Shop locations earlier this summer. This strategic move aims to streamline transactions and respond to increasing consumer demand for digital payment options.

H-E-B's commitment to technological advancements underscores its dedication to customer satisfaction. As the rollout progresses, shoppers across Texas can look forward to a more convenient, efficient, and secure way to pay, aligning with the retailer’s vision of enhancing the overall shopping experience.
