Edinburgh-based digital self-service platform, QikServe, has signed a reseller agreement with global payment provider FreedomPay.

Together the companies will offer a highly integrated payment solution for hospitality operators, combining QikServe’s enterprise digital self-service platform with the FreedomPay Commerce Platform.

The agreement will support both firm’s plans to expand across North America and Europe. The two have previously worked together on other projects, including a food and drink ordering kiosk in airport fast food outlets across the US and for dinning operator HMSHost.

The deal will enable restaurants and other hospitality operators to use QikServe’s systems to give customers a range of options for ordering food and drink, while FreedomPay’s systems will provide them a selection of options for how to pay.

FreedomPay also has data analytics functions that enable restaurants to track customers’ purchases without accessing their confidential credit or debit card information.

“We’re thrilled to expand our relationship with QikServe and look forward to jointly building our global presence,” said Tom Durovsik, Founder & CEO of FreedomPay.

“By joining the FreedomPay Commerce Platform, QikServe will be able to offer their customers a personalised seamless, smart experience at checkout.”
