QikServe Launches Integration Solution for Mobile Ordering and Payment

Incase you wondering, there is some news sprouting out of the UK that moves beyond the calamity regarding the Brexit.

Out of Edinburgh, QikServe, the mobile order and payment specialist, today launched their QikServe 5, designed to deliver easy integration of mobile ordering and payment technology in the hospitality sector.

QikServe’s patented ‘Waiter in Your Pocket’ technology lets guests order and pay for their items directly from their mobile devices.

The main development features in QikServe 5 surround increasing the flexibility and integration of the technology for the hospitality industry and include-

QikServe SDK:

The company had formerly been available as an individual app or a white-label version that can be fully branded by the operator.

Now with QikServe 5, the introduction of a SDK allows businesses to build QikServe’s mobile ordering and payment capabilities into their existing mobile apps.

As an example, a hotel with an online booking app or a restaurant with an existing loyalty app may want to use mobile room service capabilities or food and drinks order into the same app.

“We understand that many hospitality businesses will have already made some investment in mobile applications, so asking customers to use a separate app for ordering doesn’t make sense, and developing their own ordering capability is a complex and costly undertaking,” said Daniel Rodgers, Chief Operating Officer, QikServe. “QikServe 5 presents a quick and cost-effective solution that can be seamlessly built into their existing app and is already fully integrated with leading POS and back-end systems.”

QikServe Web Application:

QikServe 5 offers a simple and efficient option for businesses looking to promptly introduce a web-based ordering system into their web site or implement a tablet-based ordering system.

“While web-based ordering is not our core business, we recognize that many operators may not yet be ready to make the shift to mobile ordering, so QikServe 5 allows them to take that first step,” said Rodgers. “All of QikServe’s functionality and back-end integrations are included, so it presents a quick and easy option for operators seeking ordering functionality for their web sites.”

QikServe Integration with Oracle Hospitality:

QikServe 5 has an enhanced integration with Oracle Hospitality’s Gift and Loyalty system that allows operators to quickly and easily set up and configure loyalty programs from the QikServe app.

“With this integration, we are leveraging the depth and power of Oracle Hospitality but presenting operators with a few simple options for getting up and running with loyalty programs,” said Rodgers. “They simply log in to their QikServe app, select the loyalty editor and set up whatever they want via our user-friendly interface – all of the back-end stuff in Oracle is handled by QikServe.”
