EAT and Commidea Shortlisted for Award
Contactless Payment DatasheetCommidea and EAT have been shortlisted in the following two categories at this year's European Retail Solutions Awards: -
- Payment Solution Award
- Best Customer Facing Technology
Commidea and EAT's joint entry was based on the implementation of the UK's first fully integrated contactless payment solution at EAT's Moorgate store in London. Through using Commidea’s Ocius Chip & PIN solution with Contactless technology, EAT can process both Visa (Paywave) and MasterCard (Paypass) contactless transactions.
The integrated contactless payment solution developed by Commidea allows EAT to offer its customers a fast and convenient method of payment on all transactions of £10 and under. Cardholders simply need to touch their card against the reader instead of entering a PIN or signing. The transaction is secure, offers both the retailer and customer a faster transaction time and shorter queues, and takes away the hassle of handling loose change.
The first integrated contactless Electronic Point of Sale (EPoS) solution was installed at EAT’s Moorgate branch by Commidea and Common Sense EPoS Ltd and enables the retailer to select the method of payment that customers want to use – either cash, Chip and PIN or contactless.
