Singapore-based restaurant booking platform Chope has tied up with China’s tech giant Alipay operated by Ant Group to allow the F&B (food and beverages) business to build their mini apps on Chope’s platform.

The companies have entered into this strategic partnership with Alipay infusing $15 million funding to accelerate the digitalization of their F&B business across Asia.

With this partnership, Chope becomes Alipay’s platform partner with the capability to integrate a plethora of mini programs faster and with flexibility. Thus enhancing the scalability and functionality of Chope’s platform. Alipay under this deal will provide Chope with its Software-as-a-Service mini program and know-how.

This integration will allow businesses of all sizes to integrate into the Chope app through mini programs which are cost-effective, highly customizable, and are easy to build. This will enable the F&B operators to reach millions of users on Chope’s platform while leveraging Alipay’s innovative technology.

This partnership deal has come at a time when the food and beverages industry continues to tackle the challenges brought about by the ongoing pandemic.

According to the CEO of The Chope Group, Arrif Ziaudeen, the COVID-19 pandemic has given a boost to the adoption of digital solutions and services among the food and beverage operators. The digitalization has become the need of the hour not only to remain competitive but to survive. With this partnership they are looking for the F&B industry’s recovery and growth.

Alipay’s teaming up with Chope, the region’s leading F&B tech startup is a testament of Chope’s strong reputation and position in the region.
