Payment is handled automatically through the app, along with paperless receipts, loyalty cards, and promotions. Users can view menu information, including allergens and nutritional content, and the app’s machine learning technology makes personalised food recommendations and offers bespoke Elior promotions.

We chose Dynamify because it has some of the most sophisticated and comprehensive technology on the market, and is easy for consumers and our employees to use.”

Maxwell Harding, Founder & CEO of Dynamify, said: “We’re excited to collaborate with one of the UK’s leading contract caterers. Users of apps powered by Dynamify typically reduce their wait at the checkout by 95% and spend more given the ease of ordering, paying, and earning rewards in the tap of a button – which will revolutionise the buying experience at Elior-managed sites. We look forward to providing more catering clients with an easy, quick, and affordable route into the booming digital ordering market, while continuing to delight users with the ultimate in convenience and personalisation.”
