Australian Mobile Payment Platforms

Eftpos Debuted its First Live Payment Service at Subway Stores

— May 19, 2022 — Business
'Eftpos,' the mobile payment solutions company, officially launched the Eftpos eQR payments system at Subway restaurants in Australia. The eQR system refers to mobile payment processing through scanning a QR code. Eftpos noted that it originally planned to launch its eQR system at Subway restaurants in late 2021 but this release was delayed due to local lockdown restrictions.

To celebrate the launch of the Eftpos eQR payments system at Subway restaurants, the company is offering customers the ability to receive three times as many SubCard reward dollars when paying via the new eQR system. This is a limited-time promotion with no set end date as of now.

Eftpos stated that its QR-code-based payments service will be familiar to many communities in Australia as a result of CoViD-19 restrictions leading to many stores adopting QR codes for menus, ordering systems, and other solutions.
