We’re excited to share that KateMedia is now a proud member of UKHospitality, the leading trade association representing the UK’s vibrant and diverse hospitality sector.
As a company committed to empowering restaurants, cafés, and hospitality venues with innovative order and pay solutions, we see this as a natural and strategic step forward. Our mission has always been about more than just technology — it’s about helping businesses thrive in an ever-changing environment.
UKHospitality is the authoritative voice for over 740 member companies, representing more than 130,000 venues across the UK — from bars, restaurants, hotels and coffee shops to contract caterers, visitor attractions, and self-catering accommodation. Members range from well-known brands to independent businesses and everything in between.
The organisation plays a critical role in campaigning for policies that support growth, jobs, and innovation in the sector. Through guidance, legal support, and engagement with government and media, UKHospitality champions issues such as:
Current members include major players like Wagamama, Mitchells & Butlers, PizzaExpress, Whitbread, and many more who are shaping the future of the industry.
At KateMedia, we believe the best way to support the hospitality sector is not only through our technology—but also by being actively involved in the conversations shaping its future. Joining UKHospitality allows us to stay close to the heart of the industry, collaborate with like-minded innovators, and contribute meaningfully to shared challenges.
With rising labour costs, shifting customer expectations, and an ever-growing need for digital efficiency, hospitality businesses are under increasing pressure. Our Order & Pay solutions have already helped brands increase average order value by over 10%, improve operational flow, and increase labour efficiencies as well as create new revenue streams through screen advertising and loyalty integrations.
By aligning with UKHospitality, we gain access to vital industry insights and can ensure our technology roadmap continues to address real-world needs—from speed of service and staffing shortages to enhance guest satisfaction and spend.
We’re excited to take part in UKHospitality’s upcoming events, networking opportunities, and policy discussions—while supporting fellow members with solutions that are proven to work in fast-paced environments. We also look forward to sharing insights, data, and learnings from our work across the UK and Europe.
And the timing couldn’t be better — tomorrow marks UKHospitality’s Summer Conference, where our colleague Gemma Jones will be proudly representing KateMedia. We’re looking forward to hearing from industry leaders, diving into the big conversations shaping the future of hospitality, and connecting with brands who, like us, are committed to innovation and impact.
This membership is more than a badge—it’s a commitment to the sector we’re passionate about serving.
Let’s keep building a stronger, smarter hospitality future together.
We are looking forward to doing business with you, and are ready to introduce you into the future of restaurant payment service
