Rubean and GLS-Spain improve the parcel delivery service with advanced tap-to-pay solution on the parcel delivery mobile devices
With the Rubean PhonePOS solution, GLS delivery team can now accept card payments on their mobile logistic devices using advanced and secure technology.Munich, October 30, 2023. Rubean AG, a FinTech company (ISIN: DE0005120802, WKN: 512080, R1B:GR), Munich, and GLS Spain, a Spanish leading parcel delivery company, deployed the Rubean PhonePOS solution to GLS Spain logistics mobile application, used by 5.000 drivers to deliver parcels across the country.
Dr Hermann Geupel, CEO of Rubean AG said: "We are delighted to work with GLS Spain team and help them to quickly integrate our solution for Black Friday and Holidays campaigns in record time. PhonePOS is designed to address our customers’ short time-to-market needs”.
The Rubean app is a pure software-based and FULL-SDK certified card acceptance solution for mobile phones, tablets and handhelds. Also known as softPOS, it enables the driver to accept card payments on the device already in use instead of carrying and accepting cash. This results in increased operational efficiencies through shorter payment times and the integration with the finance and logistic systems of GLS Spain.
Roberto Martínez, GLS CFO added: “The Black Friday and Christmas campaigns are a challenge due to the high volume of eCommerce purchases and, at the same time, an opportunity to continue offering a quality service and a good user experience to our customers. From now on, thanks to the solution developed together with Rubean, deliveries will be more agile, delivery staff will be able to accept fast card payments and the shopping experience will be more satisfactory, by adding a new solution for the reception of the shipment.”
