Seamless signs agreement with Payzone


Seamless (OMX: SEAM) has signed an agreement with the payment solution provider Payzone. The agreement states that Payzone will integrate the mobile payment solution SEQR into its service offering. The approximately 20 000 restaurants and stores that today use Payzone payment terminal will, through the agreement, easily offer its clients the possibility to pay with their mobile starting summer of 2014

- The agreement with Payzone allows us to reach a large number of new stores and further speed up the expansion pace within the retail- and restaurant industry. Customers will also be able to make a purchase through payment terminals in the same easy way done with SEQR in stores and online today; by scanning a QR-code and confirm the amount by entering a PIN-code. The receipt is like always stored in the mobile, says Peter Fredell, CEO of Seamless that provides SEQR.

Payzone delivers payment solutions tailored for the retail, hotel- and restaurant industries. Clients include everybody from large chains and the smaller corner store. Restaurant staff can already offer faster service through Payzone’s payment terminals printing the check directly at the table. Through the collaboration with SEQR the service will increase even further through the possibility to pay with the mobile. Fast, safe and smooth.

- We continuously strive to contribute to the growth of the retail industry by delivering the best within payment solutions. Through SEQR’s payment solution our clients can both keep transaction costs down and offer a smooth payment method, says Jan Lundblad, CEO of Payzone.

Currently Payzone has partnerships with 80 ECR (Electronic Cash Register) suppliers mainly in the restaurant, hotel- and retail industry.
