GetSwift shares real-time delivery platform with Commonweath Bank merchants

Commonwealth Bank Australia (CBA) and ASX-listed software company GetSwift are reportedly partnering to offer the bank’s retail merchants access to the tech company’s delivery software.
News.com.au reports that retailers banking with CBA processing contactless payments with the bank’s ‘Albert’ app will also be able queue, route and dispatch deliveries.
According to Bane Hunter, Executive Chairman, GetSwift, the technology will make the vendors delivery-ready, especially important given the recent confirmation that Amazon plans to launch soon in Australia.
“For vendors, it’s a cost effective way of tackling the threat from Amazon, Foodora, UberEats, Deliveroo and other global technology companies attempting to capture this space,” Hunter said.
News.com.au also revealed that consumers will be able to pay for goods on arrival using the CBA platform due to the partnership.
GetSwift will also work with CBA to develop technology to improve sales and delivery processes, including a GPS-tracked payment terminal.
