    The popular food chain announced during an earnings call in late January that it will invest $10 million to upgrade its mobile app to include a mobile payments option.

    “We are experimenting with mobile payments, and we have kind of a rough version right now that our employees are able to use,” Chipotle’s chief financial officer, John Hartung, remarked, according to Bloomberg.
