The Montreal-based global payment technology company is partnering with Judopay to enable mobile payments for customers in KFC restaurants throughout Spain.

The partnership will allow KFC España to provide seamless mobile payments for its customers throughout its almost 150 branches in Spain.

KFC continues to shift its strategy to focus more on optimizing its customers’ digital experience.

We are proud to provide this famous brand with the benefits of our payment technology and network of local acquiring partners. On Nuvei’s part, this proves that our emphasis on flexibility and localized services pays dividends at any scale,” said Nuvei Chair and CEO Philip Fayer.

Nuvei’s proprietary platform provides seamless pay-in and payout capabilities, connecting merchants with their customers in 204 markets worldwide, with local acquiring in 45 markets.
