Tasty Tech: HKBN, Alipay and OpenRice alliance to boost HK dining sector



Broadband service provider HKBN Enterprise Solutions, pay service platform Alipay, and Hong Kong-based dining guide OpenRice has teamed up to provide one-stop bundles tailored to boost the competitiveness of F&B sector customers.  
Said Billy Yeung, HKBN Co-Owner and COO for Enterprise Solutions: ''We're extremely excited about the growing trend of instant mobile payments. Through our cooperation with Alipay and OpenRice, HKBN Enterprise Solutions aims to provide customers with the range of tools they need to stay competitive. We will continue to tailor our services and inject innovation into our existing services so that businesses are equipped for incoming challenges and opportunities.''
Combining key services and perks essential for success in today's F&B industry, the one-stop solutions offer business broadband and voice communication services with the ubiquitous popularity of the Alipay payment service and access to leverage the OpenRice promotion platform.
Venetia Lee, head of Alipay Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan, added: ''Alipay strives to work with partners to develop convenient solutions for merchants and help them to better understand their customers while generating more revenue. This cooperation is our new attempt and we hope that merchants can benefit from it.''
HKBN Enterprise Solutions' cooperation with Alipay will enable F&B businesses to provide their customers with an additional payment option that is fast, easy and convenient. Using just a smartphone or tablet, businesses can receive payments instantaneously, as well as check details of each transaction online at any time through the Alipay system. To help F&B businesses attract more patrons, the bundled OpenRice points can be used via the OpenRice platform to pay for advertising or reservation service fees.
''Dining service in Hong Kong has been growing more and more online, from cloud POS, online booking, scan-to-order, takeaway service to mobile payment, etc, said Joe Yau, CEO of OpenRice. “High quality and stable broadband connections are indispensable to restaurants. We are now working closely with HKBN Enterprise Solutions and Alipay to bring exceptional service and value to the dining industry.'' (Image from Pixabay)
