Jaguar announces in-car Apple Pay payment option at UK Shell gas stations

With a new Shell app, owners of the 2018 Jaguar F-PACE, XE and XF will be able to use Apple Pay to purchase their gas while sitting behind the wheel, the car maker announced. Once the Shell app is installed, drivers can pull up to the pump and select how much fuel they want using the car’s touch screen before completing the transaction with Apple Pay. While you’ll still have to pump the gas the old fashioned way, the move lets users avoid using the store’s card reader to reduce the odds of their credit card information being intercepted. The rollout is starting in the U.K., with Jaguar promising to eventually launch the update globally, making the Shell app “available across the entire Jaguar and Land Rover ranges.”
