Firehouse Subs to add mobile payment capability to app

Firehouse Subs customers will be able to order, purchase and pick up their food more quickly than ever thanks to the chain's use of MaterCard's MasterPass.

By the end of the summer, Firehouse Subs customers will be able to order, purchase and pick up their food more quickly than ever thanks to the chain's use of MaterCard's MasterPass, which enables consumers to pay for the things they want with the security they demand, online or in app, using any device according to a company press release.

Now accepted in 23 countries, the platform securely stores payment and shipping information, which is readily accessible when a consumer checks out using the, "Buy with MasterPass" button and logs into their account, said Michael Cyr, group executive, U.S. Market Development, MasterCard.

"Quick service restaurants are focused on providing quality food as conveniently as possible," he said. "With MasterPass, consumers can go online, place their order and pay with just one click — the hassle of entering delivery and billing information is eliminated, meaning less time they’ll be waiting for their meal."

"Firehouse Subs is excited to harness this new mobile payment technology on FirehouseSubs.com," said Vince Burchianti, CFO, Firehouse of America.

"Innovation and exceptional customer service are two core values that MasterPass and Firehouse Subs share, and by moving in this direction, Firehouse Subs is able to simplify the checkout process and provide our guests a simple, convenient and secure way to place online orders," he said.
