Android pay available to KFC’s customers in the UK

By James Russell: Android pay available to KFC’s customers in the UK

May 18, 2016

KFC is now offering its customers access to Android Pay, a new way for Android users to make payments with their phones by seamlessly using their handsets at contactless payment terminals.

With over 890 restaurants in the UK, KFC is always looking for innovative ways to improve customer experience and believe that the speed and convenience of Android Pay will undoubtedly make ordering easier, without compromising their security.

Android Pay will become available today in nearly 800 of KFC’s UK restaurants, so to use a contactless payment at your local restaurant, download the Android Pay app from the Google Play Store and sign up a preferred credit or debit card. Once setup, simply unlock the phone, hold it near a contactless terminal to make a payment and the payment will be complete.

Brad Scheiner, Head of IT at KFC UK & Irelandsaid: “At KFC, we pride ourselves on convenience, so we are delighted to embrace Android Pay – a quick and easy way for our customers to make a payment. As a future focused business, we’re really excited to be at the forefront of its launch here in the UK.”

Spencer Spinnell, Director, Business Development, Google, said: “We want to make in-store payments simpler for everyone, so we’ve worked with KFC to enable Android Pay in a number of their restaurants. This adds to the list of almost 460,000 contactless payment terminals in the UK where people can seamlessly tap and pay with their Android phones.”
