Through FreedomPay integrations with services such as Oracle OPERA and Pay at Table, diners can pay digitally from their seat. Furthermore, FreedomPay’s association with Ingenico’s TETRA platform means businesses can use the entire range of wireless and Bluetooth-powered PIN entry devices (PEDs).
FreedomPay also supports mobile wallets such as Apple Pay and Google Pay, with plans to add AliPay, WeChat Pay and China Union Pay in the near future.
Chris Kronenthal, President and CTO of FreedomPay, said: “We have ambitious expansion plans across Europe and Barclaycard is a critical acquiring partner of scale, with a reputation for trust and security, to help us with that journey.

Earlier this month, Barclaycard extended its relationship with SAP to make its payments gateway product Smartpay available to SAP customers across Europe.
Through the alliance, businesses signed up to the SAP Commerce Cloud will have access to SmartPay, which enables flexible payments. In addition, the platform supports one-click purchases and allows buyers to use a variety of cards, currencies and payment methods.
