A2Z Smart Technologies Announces Partnership with Cardknox

The Cardknox payment platform can now be integrated with the Cust2Mate smart shopping cart, enabling grocers to accept a wide range of payment methods - including eWIC, credit and debit cards, and mobile wallets.

TEL AVIV, ISRAEL / ACCESSWIRE / February 23, 2022 / A2Z Smart Technologies Corp. ("A2Z" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: AZ)(TSXV:AZ), announces that it has signed a partnership agreement with Cardknox, a Fidelity Payments company and leading developer-friendly omnichannel payment platform for the integration of its seamless payment solutions to the Cust2Mate smart cart.

Through its partnership with Cust2Mate, shoppers will have access to robust and secure payment processing capabilities built directly into the smart cart, via a device or contactless payment option. Cardknox supports a wide range of leading payment methods, including credit and debit cards, Google Pay, Apple Pay, eWIC, SNAP EBT, and more.

"We are excited to work with Cardknox to further expand the in-cart payment process on our Cust2Mate Smart Carts," stated Rafi Yam, CEO of Cust2Mate. "Our goal is to make in-store shopping efficient and enjoyable by providing in-cart payment options that eliminate the need to wait in long checkout lines and our integration of the Cardknox technology is a valuable addition that enhances our state-of-the-art solution."

"With one easy integration, users of Cust2Mate will now be able to process the widest range of payment types while also enjoying access to value-added payment tools and competitive rates," says Mark Paley, VP of Sales at Cardknox.
