Even though , iPayYou doesn't look as good as other services such as Bitpay for example , they managed to make Starbucks accepting bitcoin in their official application and that's definitly an achievement for a new service like them.
In order to use this feature , you first have a wallet in iPayYou otherwise It's not going to work. The next year already sound very promising and I can't wait to see more .

Ipayyou is not a popular service but with starbucks they might get into mainstream,I think this is a new service and they might incorporate many service in the future,who knows Mcdonald might be added soon or many popular fastfood and cuisine.
Well if that indeed is the case then with both those franchises can launch bitcoin into a new stratosphere. And with the sudden enormous rise of the price per bitcoin, it is only a matter time before the corporate big wigs there take notice and jump on it.
But I could of sworn that Starbucks was accepting payments by bitcoin since last year.

Update: I was right! Through this app: https://coffee.foldapp.com/

And since late last year - https://news.bitcoin.com/starbucks-customers-can-now-choose-between-bitcoin-apple-pay/
