SticksʹnʹSushi taps Shift4 payment and ordering technology across UK and Europe locations
Shift4 has announced a partnership with restaurant group SticksʹnʹSushi to provide integrated payment and ordering solutions across 32 locations in the UK and Europe.
Shift4's technology integrates into Sticks'n'Sushi's guest journey, combining end-to-end payment processing with mobile handheld devices that enable staff to take orders and payments directly at the table. The partnership also includes Dynamic Currency Conversion for both domestic and international guests.
“As restaurants scale, having best-in-class technology that enhances operations becomes a critical driver of growth while improving service for guests,” says Taylor Lauber, CEO at Shift4. “We’re proud to power SticksʹnʹSushi’s exceptional guest experience with our integrated payment and ordering technology.”
“In the modern hospitality industry, the payment experience is an integral part of the overall dining journey,” says Andreas Karlsson, CEO at SticksʹnʹSushi. “Shift4’s commitment to the guest experience aligns with our service ethos rooted in Omotenashi - the Japanese art of wholehearted hospitality. We look forward to implementing their flexible, scalable payments infrastructure across even more locations, so we can continue focusing on what matters most to us wherever we are: the guest.”
2026 RTIH Innovation Awards
Payments will be a key focus area at the 2026 RTIH Innovation Awards.
The awards are now open for entries and celebrate global retail technology innovation in a fast moving omnichannel world.
Our winners will be revealed at the 2026 RTIH Innovation Awards Ceremony, taking place at The HAC in Central London on Wednesday, 4th November.
Check out our 2025 winners here.
Our 2025 hall of fame entrants were revealed during a sold out event which took place at The HAC on 16th October and consisted of a drinks reception, three course meal, and awards ceremony presided over by award winning comedian, actress and writer Tiff Stevenson.
In his welcome speech, Scott Thompson, Founder and Editor, RTIH, said: “This is the awards’ fifth year as a physical event. We started off with just 30 people at the South Place Hotel not far from here, then moved to London Bridge Hotel, then The Barbican, and last year RIBA’s HQ in the West End.”
“But I’m conscious of the fact that, to quote the legend that is Taylor Swift, You’re only as hot as your last hit, baby. So, this year we’ve moved to our biggest venue yet, and also pulled in our largest number of entries to date and broken attendance records.”
He added: “This year’s submissions have without doubt been our best yet. To quote one of the judges: The examples of innovative developments across both traditional and digital retail spaces were truly remarkable.”
Congratulations to our winners, and a big thank you to our sponsors, judging panel, the legend that is Tiff Stevenson, and all those who attended our 2025 gathering.
