The mobile payment battle has entered the fast food phase.
PayPal announced Monday that it will soon be integrated into Burger King's apps so customers can purchase meals from the fast food chain via the payments service.
"We will be rolling out later this quarter across the United States to all locations, BK restaurant guests will be able to securely pay with PayPal by simply launching the app and when they select to pay with PayPal they will be prompted with a four digit pin to pay," Hill Ferguson, chief product officer at PayPal, wrote in a post.
The announcement comes less than two months after Apple revealed a partnership with McDonald's to accept Apple Pay, its new mobile payments service.
In recent months, PayPal has been put on the defensive by a number of new and existing players in the payment market, including Apple, Amazon and Stripe. As one analyst put it to us in a previous interview, "Everyone is looking to eat their lunch."
In addition to the Burger King partnership, PayPal also announced the broader rollout of an option called Pay After Delivery, which lets customers pay for items up to two weeks after the date of purchase. That program lets shoppers inspect a delivered product before they pay for it, provided the item arrives within two weeks.
