The story

Hungry Jack's is Australia's franchised quick-service restaurant chain, operating as the Burger King brand licensee for over 50 years. The company has invested significantly in modernising its payments infrastructure through a deep Adyen partnership, moving from fragmented legacy POS terminals to a unified omnichannel payments platform. More recently, the partnership expanded beyond pure payments into purpose-driven checkout features like charitable giving, signalling an embedded commerce rather than just transactional payments strategy.
