MANILA, Philippines - Picture this: You’ve got guests coming to your house in an hour. Or you have a high-powered working lunch meeting, and fast food is obviously a no-no, but you have no time to go to a restaurant and order food. The instant solution: Quick Delivery.
Quick Delivery, one of the largest delivery networks of Metro Manila’s most popular food establishments, joins forces with GCash, the mobile money transfer service developed by Globe Telecom, to make it much easier, safer, and more convenient to order food from Metro Manila’s best-of-class restaurants, specialty stores, and even wine merchants, and have it delivered right at your doorstep. All it takes to green light your order is a simple text message.
Simply call Quick Delivery’s easy-to-remember number (2121212) or log on to www.quickdelivery.ph to place your order and choose GCash as payment mode. Wait for a text from GCash that says “Quick Delivery requests to deduct xxxx.xx of GCash from your wallet. Reply to this message with your MPIN if you want to confirm.” Upon confirmation of payment, your order will be delivered. Delivery hours are from 10 a.m. to 10:30 p.m., seven days a week. Quick Delivery is also open from 7 a.m. to 2 a.m. in select areas around Metro Manila.
“With GCash, people need not worry about not having enough cash on hand or divulging their credit card information for food deliveries. GCash gives Quick Delivery customers an alternative payment mode that’s safe and secure. And even if you do not have enough funds in your GCash wallet, it’s so easy to transfer funds to GCash via mobile banking partnerships with the country’s biggest banks like BPI and Unionbank,” says Paolo Baltao, president of G-Xchange, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Globe Telecom which operates GCash.
With Quick Delivery and GCash, everything is simple and easy if you’re craving your favorite dish from TGI Friday’s or raring to get a coffee bun fix from Kopi Roti or crisp, chewy pancakes from Flapjacks, or even a frozen Brazo de Mercedes from the Vargas Kitchen at the office or at home. From Bonchon Chicken to Banapple and Sango Burgers, Quick Delivery delivers with the convenience of your GCash account.
“Our partnership with GCash gives us real-time payment settlement for orders. We are hoping that we will be able to bring in more customers to our partner restaurants, as those who do not have ready cash can still order food through Quick Delivery and just pay via GCash. They don’t have to go out and run to an ATM to withdraw cash, or go out and get the food themselves,” says Eugenio Gonzalez, president of Everything Express, operator of Quick Delivery, “Not only is it convenient, it’s also more fun because we can actually make deliveries as a gift or a surprise for loved-ones and friends — with someone else paying for the food. Plus, our delivery personnel are spared from having to carry cash or make change, so transactions are faster and easier.”
Quick Delivery has over 200 partner restaurants and specialty stores in over 480 locations across Metro Manila. The list includes Bonchon, Sango, Banapple, Mexicali, Chatime, California Pizza Kitchen, Italianni’s, Gloria Maris, Dulcinea, Buffalo Wings N Things, Tender Bobs, Fish N Co., Mamou, Banana Leaf, Agave, Super Bowl, Barcino, Sentro, Café Mediterrenean, and Kirin, among others.
