Talabat, the regions main food delivery platform, is currently rolling out contactless delivery for anyone placing and paying for orders online.

This action has been created for rider and customer safety, and to allow this automatically, the customer will want to select an online payment choice.

How does contactless delivery work?

When the rider comes, ring the doorbell, and place by your door for your comfort. Our rider will then practice social distancing, while ensuring you get your order, before leaving on their next delivery.

Tomaso Rodriguez, Talabat CEO, trusts that these measures proceed to show Talabats emphasis on security in the present COVID19 outbreak, but consumers have to pay by online payment for this to work.

At Talabat, safety is our top preference at all times, particularly in this present COVID19 outbreak. We implore you, as a client to pay by online payment (debit, credit or Talabat credit), which means no physical cash has to be exchanged in hands, therefore making contactless delivery possible.

By making delivery contactless for our clients and our riders, we are placing health as first preference, Rodriguez stated.

Further, for this step, Talabat will also be dispensing door hangers which clients can depart to show that a contactless drop off is needed.

Customers can download the Talabat app for Android from Google Play or IOS on the Apple App Store.
