Lavu, a restaurant software and payments solutions provider, has partnered with Verifone, a fintech, to integrate Lavu’s all-in-one restaurant software suite with Verifone’s FLEX payments solution for restaurants.
With this integration, restaurants can accept cryptocurrency, Alipay, Affirm, PayPal, Venmo and more payment options, according to a press release.
Restaurants can use a Verifone Engage e285 device with Lavu’s tablet-based POS software to provide these payment options. It will also support bill splitting or spreading payments over time.
“Our partnership with Verifone advances our mission to help even more restaurants reach new customer segments and remain profitable during an increasingly challenging time,” Saleem S. Khatri, Lavu CEO, said in the release. “Especially over the past two years, consumers have acclimated to contactless, cardless and flexible payment methods, and we’re excited to call Verifone our ally in ensuring that restaurateurs meet these customer needs amidst inflationary pressures and staffing shortages.”
