IHG Hotels & Resorts Taps FreedomPay to Transform Commerce Technology

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, June 26, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- IHG Hotels & Resorts, one of the world’s leading hospitality companies, has selected the FreedomPay Commerce Platform as its next generation payment technology to be used at close to 4,000 IHG properties in the U.S. and Canada, across notable brands such as InterContinental Hotels & Resorts, Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants, Hotel Indigo and Holiday Inn Express hotels. A global leader in hospitality technology, FreedomPay’s fully integrated payments will bring the highest level of speed, security and flexibility to IHG hotels and their guests.

“By partnering with FreedomPay, we will be able to provide guests with easier, faster and more secure payment options and lower costs for owners,” said Peter Palli, Senior Vice President, Hotel, Owner & Commercial Products and Platforms at IHG Hotels & Resorts. “Our hotels will ultimately be able to provide faster check-ins, using FreedomPay’s Quick Chip technology and a broader range of payment options, including e-wallet payments, contactless and alternate payments such as Apple Pay, Alipay and WeChat Pay thanks to this technology.”

FreedomPay’s Next-Gen Payments platform will enable:

  • The ability to unify commerce across IHG properties, channels and regions within a single open, fully agnostic, flexible platform
  • A touchless ecosystem that supports contactless payments, quick response (e.g., QR code) technology, Apple Pay and Google Pay
  • A fully integrated end-to-end solution enabling secure payments, identity-as-a-service, loyalty, and business intelligence

“FreedomPay is the partner of choice for many of the leading global hotel brands and we’re excited to partner with IHG Hotels & Resorts to transform their guest experience,” said Chris Kronenthal, President of FreedomPay. “Our best-in-class payment solution will bring a personalized and reliable experience to IHG’s millions of guests.”
