With Memorial Day Weekend only three weeks away(!), a lot of us are getting ready to don our beach badges to enjoy the Jersey Shore. This year, a local company has teamed up with a handful of beach towns to let you skip the lines, bypass the cash, and buy your beach badges right on your phone.

The smartphone app is called Viply, and the company, based in Manasquan, has struck deals with 5 beach towns so far - Seaside Heights, Manasquan, Sea Isle City, Ventnor, and Longport, to allow beachgoers to simply use the app to buy their beach badges.

In these days where you can buy everything from parking meter time to pizza on your smartphone, it's a convenience that a lot of people who plan to enjoy our beaches will appreciate.

The app is free to download, you can check it out here.
