Jersey Mike’s Redesigns Website To Enhance Customer Experience
Jersey Mike’s Subs has redesigned its website to heighten the digital experience for its patrons and streamline the submarine sandwich chain’s order flow. The website remodel aligns more closely with the aesthetic and usability of Jersey Mike’s popular mobile application. The website echoes a beach-inspired theme that resonates with the brand’s identity.
“We shape our digital decisions around real-world experience in our stores and how our crews interact with our customers when they order their favorite sub sandwich,” said Rich Hope, Chief Marketing Officer, Jersey Mike’s Franchise Systems, Inc. “Whether joining us in our restaurants or through our app or online, we want to ensure our customers have a seamless, authentic experience.”
The new design will allow Jersey Mike’s marketing team to efficiently manage and promote special events, such as Double Points Days or the brand’s Month of Giving campaign, which takes place each March. Customers of the Manasquan, New Jersey-based restaurant will benefit from a comprehensive digital platform where they can order subs, access their MyMike’s account, check Shore Points balances, find nutritional info, and purchase gift cards and official merchandise. The initiative showcases Jersey Mike’s dedication to enhancing customer interaction across all digital touchpoints.

Digital Wallets Usher in a Golden Age of Payments
According to the 2024 Global Payments Report by Worldpay, digital wallets are ushering in a golden age in payments. Data from the report was collected by surveying 48,000 consumers, payment validation from experts, and secondary research. The report shows an exponential rise in the adoption and consumer use of digital wallets. In 2023, consumers spent $13.9 trillion through digital wallets. However, the findings highlighted in the report suggest that digital wallet use will continue to grow. By 2027, digital wallets will comprise more than $25 trillion in transactions worldwide, representing 49% of all combined point-of-sale (POS) and online sales. The factors driving the surge are convenience, ease of use and accessibility, enhanced security, and increased consumer trust.
“It’s important to understand that digital wallets are merely a mechanism for transmitting a payment, and so it is really magnifying trends we were seeing globally around the shift away from cash to other payment types, such as credit and debit cards or account-to-account (A2A),” said Gabriel de Montessus, Worldpay’s Head of Global Enterprise. “For example, in places like Brazil and India that have been cash-heavy economies until recently, instant payment services like Brazil’s Pix are being tapped into for their convenience, speed, and reliability. As businesses and governments look to accelerate commerce and streamline payments, we will see more investment in real-time payments infrastructures globally, which will likely further accelerate digital wallet adoption.”
Digital wallets emerged in the late 1990s, but widespread adoption came with the 2020 pandemic when consumer behavior shifted. However, the use is primarily influenced by regional preferences where payment patterns are well established. For example, 65% of digital wallets in the U.S. are funded by debit and credit cards.
