Wirecard Gains Andaz Luxury Hotel by Hyatt Corporation as New Customer in Singapore for POS Payment


MUNICH and SINGAPORE, November 24, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

Andaz Singapore has selected Wirecard, the leading global provider of digital financial technology solutions, to create tailored and seamless payment experiences for its guests.

With this partnership in place, Andaz Singapore will be able to cater to the payment needs at all of its hotel outlets, including reception, back office and restaurants. The range of payment options includes Visa, Mastercard, JCB and American Express, all processed through Wirecard solutions.

With Wirecard's platform, Andaz Singapore is able to accept cashless payments via credit or debit card and will enable the lifestyle hotel to profit from streamlined payment acceptance. In addition, offering Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC) service as part of the payment service will allow international guests the convenience to pay in their home currency.

"With Andaz Singapore, we wanted to create a hotel which reflects the versatility of Singapore's modern culture - that also includes our almost cashless society. We are excited about our partnership with Wirecard to be able to provide a comfortable and convenient experience that is barrier-less and offers a fresh perspective on hospitality," says Olivier Lenoir, General Manager of Andaz Singapore.

Jeffry Ho, Regional Managing Director at Wirecard, points out: "By digitizing payment processes, we are further expanding our position in the Asia-Pacific region. With the new cooperation, Wirecard can once again demonstrate its expertise in providing innovative solutions that meet the needs of our customers."
