DoorDash integration with the industry-leading NCR Aloha POS will
help improve store operations and reduce delivery times
DULUTH, Ga.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jul. 24, 2017--
NCR Corporation (NYSE:NCR), a global leader in omni-channel solutions,
today announced an agreement with DoorDash, an on-demand delivery
platform operating in more than 500 cities nationwide, for the planned
integration of the DoorDash marketplace to the NCR Aloha
Platform-of-Sale (POS). The integration will allow restaurants to more
efficiently receive and manage delivery orders placed through DoorDash,
while helping to provide a better experience to DoorDash customers.
Integrating delivery orders directly into the POS will makes it easier
for restaurants on DoorDash to manage their orders, increase accuracy
and save time. DoorDash will leverage NCR’s API ecosystem to integrate
its delivery marketplace to the NCR Aloha Platform, enabling automated
order entry. The integration will be available to restaurants using NCR
Aloha and DoorDash in the coming months.
“DoorDash is focused on providing an incredible merchant experience, and
one reason restaurants choose to partner with us is because of the
customizability of the platform,” said Tony Xu, CEO and co-founder of
DoorDash. “Integrating DoorDash with NCR Aloha provides restaurants with
another way to streamline their business and expand their off-premise
business without requiring additional technology.”
DoorDash’s platform is used by the most top 100 national restaurant
brands to power their on-demand delivery business, making them a natural
fit for a partnership with NCR Aloha. In addition to their respective
leadership in serving restaurants, NCR and DoorDash also share common
customers in the retail sector. The opportunity created by this
partnership and NCR’s omni-channel approach has the potential to create
significant value for NCR, DoorDash, and their common customers.
“We are excited to hear of the integration efforts between Aloha POS and
DoorDash. Our partnership with both DoorDash and NCR will open up doors
for P.F. Chang’s to deliver its made from scratch food to even more
guests outside of our restaurant in a consistent and timely manner,”
said Dwayne Chambers, chief marketing officer for P.F. Chang's. "The
integration between DoorDash and NCR will allow us to update our
in-restaurant and delivery menus at the same time, on one platform. This
helps us to realize a number of operational efficiencies and ensures
that our diners can choose from the most updated menu items, whether
they're eating in our restaurant or dining in the comfort of their own
home."
"As restaurants add new ordering and delivery options to their business
to drive growth, it’s critical to have technology in place that
streamlines the ordering process and, operationally, treats every order
the same, regardless of what channel it comes from,” said Don Zimmerman,
vice president of hospitality solutions at NCR. “NCR is excited to
extend this capability to our customers that leverage DoorDash’s
innovative technology, enabling them to easily manage both delivery and
in-house orders from start to finish.”
