Hotel chains, including ITC Hotels, Radisson Hotels JW Marriott, Four Seasons, St. Regis, Trident, and restaurants like Indian Accent, Olive, Mamagoto, and Barbeque Nation, all work closely with EazyDiner to get premium consumers to their restaurants. EazyDiner already powers reservations in over 700 restaurants across Dubai and Abu Dhabi and has recently launched its payment product “PayEazy” in the Middle East, said the company.
