(Hypur), the leading provider of compliant, safe, sustainable, and secure payments for dispensaries payment and banking options for high-risk, cash-intensive businesses, today announced a new partnership with HighRoad, a Maryland-based cannabis delivery company, to provide the industry’s first contactless payment solution for deliveries and curbside pickups with Hypur’s “safe checkout” feature. Highroad’s on-demand delivery service will serve customers in Maryland and the broader Washington D.C. area.
