However, many of the representatives we spoke with noted that the restaurants they work at are in the process of adding mobile payment options like Apple Pay and Google Pay.

Since Wendy’s fast-food restaurant locations are franchised and new technology is required to accept mobile payments, each location may add mobile payment options at different times. Contact your local Wendy’s to find out when it plans to add alternate payment methods. All Wendy’s restaurants currently accept cash, debit cards, credit cards, and Wendy’s gift cards. Personal checks and money orders are not accepted.

Mobile ordering is available at select locations through Wendy’s app. In order to use the app to pay, you will need to add your debit, credit, or gift card information. The Wendy’s app has an in-app locator to find a restaurant near you that accepts mobile ordering.
