Olo Pay is an easy-to-launch payment solution that provides everything restaurants need to drive sales, reduce fraud, and simplify day-to-day payment processes. The fully-integrated payment stack goes beyond the core credit card processing functionality offered by existing payment processors with new capabilities that improve both the merchant and consumer experiences.

With Olo Pay, restaurants can simplify the ordering process for consumers by offering mobile wallet support and allowing credit cards on-file to be used at any of a brand’s participating locations. In addition to the consumer-facing benefits, Olo Pay offers advanced fraud prevention that improves authorization rates for valid transactions and uses risk-score-based screenings to reject suspect transactions.

“We needed a restaurant-specific solution that would be easy to use, streamline our tech stack, reduce fraud, and, most importantly, enable our team to focus on our food and the guest experience,” said Adam Kinsinger, Director of Information Technology at WaBa Grill. “We found that in Olo Pay.”

Olo will also introduce borderless payments capabilities this year, allowing consumers to securely speed through checkout at any participating restaurant within the Olo Pay network with a single click—no account creation, password management, or manual credit card entry required. By giving consumers the power to save and access their payment information on file, restaurants will see an increase in basket conversion, retention, visit frequency, and spend.

“Olo Pay is a significant unlock for our direct digital program on many fronts,” said Corey Kline, Executive Vice President of Technology at Noodles & Company. “We are particularly excited about a borderless payments network in driving a frictionless checkout experience for our guests.”

“A consumer-friendly, direct digital ordering platform combined with a modern payments solution will be critical for restaurant brands to meet the ever-evolving needs of guests and remain competitive in the coming years,” said Tor Opedal, Vice President & General Manager of Payments at Olo. “By creating a seamless ordering experience and prioritizing security, restaurants have a massive opportunity to continue growing their business.”
