January 1, 2020 by Asia Food Journal

HEYTEA
  • Wirecard is providing seamless payments options to customers across all stores in Singapore and Hong Kong via the new mobile app, HEYTEA GO.
  • Established in 2012, the Chinese tea chain has opened more than 400 stores in over 37 cities in China and abroad.
  • The new mobile app reduces in-store wait times and improves operational efficiency.

Wirecard, the global innovation leader for digital financial technology, has won HEYTEA, China’s most popular tea brand, as a new client in South- East Asia. As part of the collaboration, Wirecard provides seamless payment solutions to customers in all stores in Singapore and Hong Kong via HEYTEA GO, a newly launched mobile app which allows users to order and pay online without waiting in stores. Founded in China in 2012, the tea chain now manages more than 400 stores in over 37 cities in China and abroad.


Since 2012, HEYTEA has been committed to serving the finest tea drinks made with originality and ingenuity. To keep pace with digital transformation, the company incorporates technology to enhance its operations. The HEYTEA GO app allows customers to skip queues by placing and paying for their orders before visiting the store. The app also shows an estimated wait time and sends push notifications to customers when their drinks are ready for collection. By integrating Wirecard’s payment technology, both customers and the retailer benefit from enhanced operational efficiency and improved customer experiences.
