Irish FinTech company, eCOMM
Merchant Solutions, has teamed up with The Taxi Alliance of
Ireland to support Dublin Airport in delivering an improved passenger
experience.
NAVAN, CO. MEATH, Ireland–(BUSINESS WIRE)–lt;a href=”https://twitter.com/hashtag/Fintech?src=hash” target=”_blank”gt;#Fintechlt;/agt;–eCOMM Merchant Solutions has embarked on an initiative to equip the
taxis serving Dublin Airport with in-car card payment terminals, and
more taxis are being equipped each day. The aim of the initiative is to
provide all passengers leaving Dublin Airport via taxi with the option
to pay for their journey without the need to worry about cash.
Speaking about the initiative, Dublin Airport Landside Standards
Manager, Anthony McGarry said ‘The demand for paying taxi
fares by credit card or smart device is increasing all the time and it’s
really important that option is available for passengers. With more
taxis having the option for customers to pay this way, it means
passengers will not be delayed further waiting for a taxi which has that
facility. In addition, transactions will be more transparent as there
are printed receipts for all.’
Gerry Macken, Chairman of The Taxi Alliance of Ireland added,
‘This is especially useful for business travellers who prefer to pay
expenses via American Express, Mastercard, Visa and services including
Apple Pay and Google Pay. For the taxi drivers, they now have a means to
run their business more competitively, and with more safety as there’s
less reliance on carrying cash.’
Dominic Higgins, Commercial Director of eCOMM Merchant Solutions,
commented ‘With this initiative, we have brought a one-stop-shop
solution to the drivers, providing fast settlement times, competitive
rates and all supported by our local call centre in Ireland. We are
always delighted to support local Irish companies with their payment
needs and by one Irish company selecting another Irish company, it will
help us create more jobs in Ireland where we recently announced 50 new
roles.’
Feedback on the scheme has been excellent and Higgins anticipates
passengers will be cleared to taxi without cash at other locations
around the country.
