Best New Product in Technology Award From IHMRS Goes to anyGuest.com

NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Nov 19, 2013) - Earlier this week at the International Hotel, Motel, and Restaurant Show, North America's leading trade show for hospitality, anyGuest.com was honored with the Editor's Choice Award for Best New Product in Technology.

anyGuest.com is a branded mobile and online ordering platform enabling guests of virtually any hospitality setting to access a venue's menu, place orders, and make payments in-app on whatever device they have with them. The unique value of anyGuest.com is its versatility; the app is built for dine-in service, takeout, delivery, room service and concessions -- everything from poolside to golf courses to casinos. It can integrate with an establishment's point of sales system or operate independently with existing hardware.

The Editor's Choice Awards were presented Sunday, November 10 at the IHMRS opening ceremony, where recipients were awarded in 7 categories for the year's most innovative products. When asked what differentiates anyGuest.com from other products in the mobile and online ordering sphere, CEO Nicolas Chaillan pointed to the application's innovative loyalty program for generating recurring sales, and the pricing: anyGuest.com does not take any per-order fees. "Recurring customers make up a huge percentage of sales in the restaurant and hospitality industry, but a lot of our clients were relying on third party ordering and payment services that take 15-20% of each sale -- which is often thousands of dollars in fees each month," Chaillan remarked. "anyGuest.com leverages direct communications and promotions in-app, via SMS, and email -- which is valuable not only for restaurants, but for any venue looking to engage their current customers and keep them coming back, without additional costs."

anyGuest.com is custom branded to every establishment, and is offered at a low flat monthly rate. With deployments around the world, anyGuest.com has been used in every setting from dine-in, takeout and delivery at traditional restaurants, ordering poolside and room service from resorts, and even ordering drinks directly from the bar while seated at gaming tables on casino floors. Completely cross-platform, anyGuest.com is a web-app that runs seamlessly on iOS, Android, BlackBerry 10, Windows Phone 8, and any browser on a computer.

"The platform can really be tailored to any establishment's needs, which IHMRS clearly understood when announcing the Best Products of 2013," Chaillan commented.
