Remote Order Platform

Cardant empowers the customers to order and pay before arriving at the store. For many retailers, the benefits include; driving incremental sales, breaking free from in-store constraints, reducing line congestion, and extending the brands relevance beyond the store. While Cardant can handle the order and payment, providing the consumer with significant time savings and great value; retailers can focus on what they do best… provide great products for their customers.

Hosted Retail Application Development

Big projects energize us – we roll up our sleeves. Cardant rallies around a seemingly daunting project, say, a processor migration for all Subway Stores in North America, and gets it done – well. We bring strengths in migration planning along with quality assurance and documentation to all our work. The “How” we do it matters; learn more under why us?

Additional Solutions

Our clients’ journeys often require us to apply our additional expertise in release management, compliance and reporting, and program management. Your success is our success and we are the team that is happy to go beyond the call of duty to get things done.
