Independent Restaurants Can Streamline Operations of Online Orders Through New Clover and Grubhub Integration<\/b><\/p>\n

Integration offers restaurants an opportunity to increase order volumes while aggregating inventory, menu, and order management via the Clover platform<\/i><\/p>\n

BROOKFIELD, Wis.–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–Fiserv, Inc.<\/a> (NASDAQ: FISV), a leading global provider of payments and financial services technology, including the Clover\u00ae<\/sup> point-of-sale and business management platform, and Grubhub<\/a>, (NASDAQ: GRUB), a leading U.S. food-ordering and delivery marketplace, announced today a direct integration of the Clover and Grubhub platforms to help thousands of independent restaurants more efficiently manage and fulfill online orders.\n<\/p>\n

\nThe Clover platform includes Clover Online Ordering<\/a>, which gives restaurant owners a consolidated view of their entire online ordering operation \u2014 from menu updates to order management. Restaurants that utilize Clover and are already partnered with Grubhub will be able to integrate operations directly into their Clover platform, eliminating the need for a separate tablet for Grubhub orders and significantly streamlining digital orders through menu synchronization, order submissions, and more. Restaurants that utilize Clover and are not currently partnered with Grubhub will be able to easily and seamlessly sign up for pickup and delivery on Grubhub through the Clover platform for a commission-free trial, effectively expanding their reach to Grubhub’s more than 33 million diners across the country.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cWe know that simplifying ordering operations is top of mind for our restaurant partners, and with the Clover integration, restaurateurs can have peace of mind knowing all of their orders are going to one place \u2014 negating the need for multiple tablets and having to manually input orders,\u201d said Theresa Dold, vice president of restaurant product at Grubhub. \u201cWe\u2019re excited to offer this integration to tens of thousands of independent restaurants across the country who are looking to streamline their operations.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cIntegrating Clover and Grubhub makes management of delivery orders much easier for restaurants, enabling them to reach more customers while operating more efficiently,\u201d said Ellen Linardi, senior vice president of product and design at Clover. \u201cThis is the first of multiple delivery options that will be accessible to restaurants via the Clover platform, providing a practical way for restaurants to meet customers\u2019 growing appetite for food delivery.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nAccording to the Mercator Advisory Group\u2019s U.S. 2021 Buyers PaymentsInsights survey<\/a>, the percentage of consumers who have ordered restaurant delivery services through a mobile phone or computer jumped from 8 percent in 2019 to 21 percent in 2021.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cThe popularity of food delivery apps was already growing before 2020,\u201d said Rob Misasi, president of Mercator Advisory Group. \u201cThe pandemic acted as a catalyst that accelerated the adoption rate as stay-at-home households looked for a quick, easy and safe way to have restaurant meals delivered. Now, many consumers continue to want this convenience, and the integration of services such as Clover and Grubhub can increase the competitiveness of restaurants among customers looking for this type of dining option.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
