BCH Digital SMS messaging serviceBCH Digital has launched a
new SMS messaging service that allows customers to order food and drink and
provides data to the Government’s Track and Trace system. My Round sees
customers enter a phone number into their mobile phone and then text orders for
staff to fulfil before picking them up from a designated area, thereby reducing
bottlenecks. “We are really excited to launch My Round, a simple and
inexpensive mobile ordering system, which will support the hospitality industry
as it re-opens,” says BCH Digital’s John Hanson.
“As an SMS messaging service, it does not discriminate
against those that might not have a smartphone, as it can be used in low signal
areas, especially in those more rural locations.” “My Round will also capture
customers’ mobile numbers securely, instead of enabling punters to potentially
register false details via apps. My Round also addresses the Track and Trace
recommendations in line with the latest Government guidelines, to ensure that
those vital pieces of personal data can be made available to meet any new
Government directive.” www.myround.info QSR AutomationsKitchen automation
and guest management expert QSR Automations has added new contactless features
to its Selectedepos Kitchen and DineTime solutions.
QSR Automations’ Selectedepos Kitchen (CSK) or
DineTime customers can now easily create and print QR codes to join the
waitlist, providing diners with a contactless way to join the waitlist for a
restaurant, and can also add a QR code link to receipts, allowing operators to
point guests to any relevant website including digital menus, loyalty programs,
COVID-19 policies, promotional offers or online payment options from the
comfort of their own device. QSR Automation customers can also leverage two-way
SMS to notify diners of order status updates from Selectedepos Kitchen,
including when the order is complete – allowing for no-contact pickup. “As the
restaurant industry continues recovery efforts from the pandemic, we’re going
to see more and more social distancing measures required,” says QSR Automations
CEO Lee Leet.
“These latest feature enhancements provide simple ways
operators can ease hesitations and offer safe environments for both on-premise
and off-premise diners.”
