Safeway rolled out a new mobile app aiming to save you time at the pump.
The “One Touch Fuel” app allows customers who use Safeway gas stations to activate the pump and pay for fuel from their mobile phone. The app stores the customer’s payment information and links to their “just for U” rewards account.
According to a press release, the app uses Microsoft Azure technology so you can complete steps like activating the pump, choosing your fuel type, and pay before you get out of the car. Safeway says the app will save customers an average of 90 seconds each time they fill up.
"This is the fastest and most convenient way to get in and out of the gas station," said Karl Schroeder, Seattle Division President. "We are reimagining the future to serve customers in a way they want to interact with us across every part of the business."
You can use the app at all Safeway fuel locations in Washington.
