PayPal gets a Lyft
The ride-sharing service added PayPal's One Touch service to its iOS app.
In celebration of this weekend's SXSW event in Austin, Lyft teams with PayPal to add its One Touch-payment feature into the ride sharing company's iOS app. Lyft users with Apple devices now can log in, sync their PayPal payment information, and pay for rides with the push of a button, according to the announcement.
To celebrate One Touch coming to the Lyft app, PayPay is collaborating with Lyft to bring SXSW attendees a special experience called Magic Mode. SXSW attendees who request a ride in Magic Mode could get the chance to get picked in amazing cars like an original Mini Cooper, 1963 Bentley, Tesla Model S or others. Users will also receive promotional items such as sunglasses or a Cuddlestache.
Lyft users who pay with PayPal will receive $5 off their first Magic Mode ride.
