Food Delivery

Food delivery payments built to keep orders moving

Customers expect quick ordering. Restaurants expect predictable payouts. Couriers expect immediate access to earnings. And during peak hours, every second matters. Behind each expectation is a payment flow that spans markets, currencies, and local methods. With the right system in place, you can support all three without disruption.

Make every order count

The challenge

Clearing payment challenges off the service line

Payments in the food delivery ecosystem come with their own unique challenges that can affect the customer, courier, and restaurant experience. A successful journey means addressing critical challenges head-on:

Managing high-volume, small-value transactions across multiple markets and currencies
Preventing fraud while ensuring fast, frictionless customer payments
Handling real-time payouts to restaurants and couriers with multiple settlement methods
Supporting local payment methods, from Boleto in Brazil and SPEI in Mexico to PayNow in Singapore
Ensuring compliance with new regulations across emerging markets
Processing fast refunds for canceled or incorrect orders
Supporting peak-hour spikes without payment failures

Payments built for the rhythm of food delivery

Food delivery platforms operate under constant load. Clean, reliable payment flows—from the customer's first tap to fast payouts for restaurants and couriers—have a direct impact on your platform.

Our solution supports this with an end-to-end setup that brings payins, payouts, Smart Routing, and fraud prevention into a single API. Transactions run on local rails and align with customers' preferred ways to pay, while automated compliance and real-time settlement keep your operations aligned across emerging markets.
