Sodexo and Uber Eats sign a global partnership agreement. Sodexo
meal card holders will be able to easily pay for their meals and
have them delivered via the Uber Eats app. Kick-off in France!
Paris, April 6th2021
The global partnership between Sodexo, the world
leader in Quality of Life services, and Uber Eats, the leader in
meal delivery, is just launched in France and will be extended to
other European countries and Latin America in the coming months. In
France, Sodexo Pass Restaurant card holders will now be able to
have meal delivered from their favorite restaurants, 7 days a week
with no minimum order required and up to 38 euros a day1,
everywhere where Uber Eats is present - that is in over 240 French
cities.
The new service, eagerly awaited with the growth
of remote working, complements the current online ordering and
payment offering with the Pass Restaurant card. It represents a
major opportunity for the 22,000 restaurants and merchants
partnering with Uber Eats and Sodexo in France. This agreement
continues to illustrate the acceleration of the digitalization of
Sodexo's Benefits and Rewards offerings for the hundreds of
thousands of French employees who are Pass Restaurant card
holders.
Sodexo and Uber Eats are partnering to
facilitate users’ daily life and provide them with a simple, fast
and seamless experience, as all they have to do is log on to the
Uber Eats app and add their Pass Restaurant card. This service,
which will be progressively extended to all French users over the
next few weeks, also guarantees compliance with the legal framework
for the reimbursement of restaurants.
Comprised of a unique and innovative set of
APIs2, this new service, fully integrated with the Uber Eats
technology platform, guarantees users a simple, fast and secure
payment experience.
Aurélien Sonet, Global CEO of
Sodexo Benefits and Rewards Services, said: “This
partnership is a great step forward for Sodexo and Uber Eats, who
have very complementary approaches to the new challenges of the
workplace and employee experience. Together, we are providing an
additional response to employee nomadism and flexibility. We have
created a standard that can easily be reused by other countries
with a smart co-construction on the consumer journey. As the global
leader in Quality of Life services, we continue to innovate to
improve the quality of life of employees at work.”
Bastien Pahus, General
Manager Uber Eats France, said: “We are delighted to
announce this partnership that will allow us to meet the new needs
of our users through more innovative payments and greater ease and
security. This new payment service complements their personal
credit card and PayPal. We want to be part of the daily life of
French people by offering them the best experience with each
order.”
