OAK BROOK, Ill. - McDonald's customers will soon be able to use credit and debit cards to pay for their meals at a majority of the chain's U.S. restaurants.


The company said Thursday it had reached agreements to accept payments via Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover Card and STAR cards.


Cashless payments, primarily debit cards, already are accepted at more than 3,000 of McDonald's 13,600 U.S. restaurants. The company said Thursday it intends to more than double that number this year to as many as 8,000 restaurants.

Wendy's and KFC here both take credit and debit. I guess we can add Micky D's to the list, too.

Captain D's and Arby's takes credit cards. The McD's near my job takes Checks (yay:D !) and the McD's near my school needs to get with the program, they only take cash and it is in the heart of a medical district and the university is on the next block! Some times a sista might not have cash, because I just have to have a Grilled Bacon Ranch Salad with the yummy Club Crackers!!!!;)

Wow...is this location near a college campus or just in the city somewhere? There were a few pizza places near our campus that took checks, but no eateries in the city.

I have to imagine that taking checks is very risky for that type of business. But they must not mind.

What's next...paying for gas with an I owe you note...

I know this is old but 9 months later the McDonald's here is Akron now take debit/credit cards. I am happy! I no longer have a reason to find an ATM just to get food!

II don't know how I missed this thread before but...I like that they take cards but I don't like how they do it. They just swipe the card, no pin, no signature, nothing...not even a receipt!
