Urban Air appointed Appetize for its contactless capabilities (including NFC and “tap-to-pay” checkout) and cloud Point of Sale to enhance the safety and experiences of guests and staff. The company’s current system will be completely upgraded with the integration of Appetize’s omnichannel digital solution, including self-service kiosks, Interact, which allow the reduction of staff interaction and crowded check-ins and provide 25% faster checkout. All Appetize devices come ready with all the leading mobile wallet providers—including Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, and Google Pay—a feature that helps eliminate cash handling. Urban Air is utilizing Appetize’s POS-as-a-Service model, whereby hardware and software are bundled into an affordable monthly fee, reducing the capital required by franchisees.
