NEW DELHI: Gurgaon-based Zomato, one of the fastest growing start-ups in India that has acquired seven companies across the world in past six months, on Tuesday launched a cashless feature on its mobile application in Dubai.

Zomato has launched its latest innovation in exclusive partnership with Emirates NBD. The facility will initially be available across 120 participating restaurants in Dubai.

The cashless feature would give Zomato users an option to settle their bill at participating restaurants without paying cash or physically swiping their cards at the restaurants. "At the end of the meal, the final bill amount is sent directly to the app on the diner's smartphone and the payment is automatically deducted from the registered card," the company said in a statement.

"Credit card usage is extremely strong in Dubai which makes it the perfect market to launch a consumer feature as powerful as cashless. Our focus has always been on making dining experiences more convenient for users, and this is going to change the way people dine out. We will be taking Cashless to more markets in the very near future," said Pankaj Chaddah, Co-Founder and COO of Zomato.
