Lunchbox differentiates themselves from Olo, launching an OPEN Payments ecosystem for POS and integration partners, allowing operators to own their processing operations from end-to-end
Lunchbox, the enterprise online ordering system that’s platformed national and regional QSR brands such as Papa Gino’s, Clean Juice, Wings Over and Walk-On’s Sports Bistreaux, has announced the launch of OPEN Payments, an innovative solution that enables restaurants to supply their own payment processor and leverage best-in-class processing through their point of sale system.
Alongside their recent launch of the Lunchbox 2.0 product suite in October of 2022, the brand introduces new processes that allow restaurant operators to select their preferred credit card payments processor for all online and mobile app ordering. The OPEN Payments ecosystem serves as a solution to the industry’s current offerings, now allowing restaurants to own their processing operations from end-to-end.

Differentiating from their competitors’ offerings, the OPEN Payments ecosystem encourages new and existing POS systems in the space to nurture their relationships with their current customers.
