With the TimmyMe app, Tim Hortons is offering a new way for you to pay with your smartphone.
Although payment cards like the Tim Card are handy for avid java drinkers, being able to use them depends on actually keeping it in your wallet, remembering it and not losing the card. With the TimmyMe app available for Apple, Android and BlackBerry 10 phones, it's always on hand.
The app is integrated with Passbook and also makes it easy to see how much money you've got loaded onto a card, which you can't do with a plastic card. With the app, users can set up their Tim Card balance reloads manually or automatically, so that carrying around enough cash for a coffee is never an issue.
