Taco Bell Moves to Digital-Only Sales

Is it time to put the cash away? Taco Bell and other popular fast-food chains might become digital-only in the near future.

During an earnings call earlier this month, parent company Yum! Brands, Inc. addressed plans to eventually move to 100% digital sales at its restaurants.

This includes fast food chains like Taco Bell, Pizza Hut, and KFC.

So, what does this mean? In an interview with the CFO Journal, Chief Financial Officer Chris Turner said more customers would be ordering through apps, websites or kiosks in the stores.

Yum! Brands is already testing the use of artificial intelligence to take drive-thru orders, the CFO Journal reported.

According to company leaders, “in the U.S., digital sales have increased almost 35% year over year with kiosks now deployed in 100% of Taco Bell stores.”

It’s unclear when the company plans to reach its goal.

Many other chains have also turned to technology in recent years. Wendy’s began testing an AI chatbot at an Ohio drive-thru earlier this year while many sit-down restaurants have started using robot servers to bring meals to patrons.

    This is how the global elites are going to successfully reach their goal of eliminating 90% of the world population. Yes, they’re going to (ultimately) ‘eliminate’ you. Remember the mark of the beast, (666)? You are going to be forced to buy EVERYTHING, (including food), digitally, (credit/debit card). At ANY time, If you fail to follow EVERY government mandate issued, your card will be ‘disabled’. You won’t be able to buy – ANYTHING.
