SinglePlatform Named Preferred Menu Provider for OpenTable

SinglePlatform customer menus will update across all OpenTable platforms

Connecting with hungry diners just got a lot easier for restaurants. SinglePlatform from Constant Contact®, Inc. (NASDAQ:CTCT) today announced that OpenTable, Inc., the world’s leading provider of online restaurant reservations, has named SinglePlatform as its new preferred provider of restaurant menus in North America. With this partnership, restaurants that use OpenTable can take advantage of unlimited updates for up to five menus, and SinglePlatform will provide a dedicated support team, ensuring accurate menus that will aid the decision-making of the millions of diners OpenTable seats per month.

“Diners rely on OpenTable to provide all the information they need to discover and book the perfect restaurant, and menus are a key element of the discovery and decision-making experience,” said Scott Jampol, Senior Vice President of Marketing at OpenTable. “By partnering with SinglePlatform, we’re working together to make it easy and seamless for our restaurant customers to update and showcase their latest menus and seasonal fare.”

Via the partnership with SinglePlatform, OpenTable restaurant customers can update their menus from OpenTable’s Restaurant Center and have those updates reflected on the OpenTable site and mobile apps.

“It’s an understatement to say that online search is essential to a local restaurant’s success,” said Pete Chen, vice president and general manager of SinglePlatform from Constant Contact. “Restaurants need to have accurate menu information readily available online, as well as a way for consumers to take action on their restaurant selection.”
