So that is how it would look if Kroger decided to accept Contactless offically.
I think it'll happen eventually there especially with EMV. I am thinking all they'll do for EMV there is also add the word Insert to make it say "Insert, Slide, or Tap card at anytime" with the same Alternate ID and Espaņol buttons at the bottom.

Of course inserting will show a "Do not remove card" prompt until you or the cashier is done scanning everything.
