EatStreet and Red Card Team Up to Feed UW?Madison Students

Red Card Accepted As Payment on EatStreet.com

Madison, WI ?? Jan. 19, 2016 ??- EatStreet, the largest independent online and mobile food ordering company in the United States, and Red Card Media LLC?s Red Card, the prepaid off?-campus meal plan for University of Wisconsin Madison students, announce a new partnership aimed to make online ordering even easier for local students.

The collaboration between the two Madison?-based companies is slated for late first quarter in 2016 and will offer current Red Card users the ability to use their card on EatStreet.com. EatStreet will power online ordering for Red Card Media, LLC including the soon-?to?-be?-shuttered WisGo.com site and a forth?coming portal on Isthmus.com. Red Card users will be able to enjoy convenient ordering from local restaurants, exclusive and on?going specials, and EatStreet?s 24/7 Madison?-based customer support.

?College is stressful enough, ordering food online should be easy,? said Matt Howard, CEO and co?founder of EatStreet. ?With this upcoming integration, University of Wisconsin?Madison students are going to have more dining options than ever before and the fact that they can use their Red Card to pay at checkout makes payment a snap.?

This partnership will allow all current and future Red Card users to order online using the EatStreet platform, both at EatStreet.com and via the mobile apps for iOS and Android, and to make purchases on EatStreet using the Red Card payment plan. Restaurants that currently accept Red Card as on?site payment will continue to do so.

"EatStreet is a premier technology provider for online ordering. We feel that this integration will provide the thousands of students who use Red Card the best possible online ordering solution," said Jeff Haupt, owner of Red Card Media, LLC.
