Curbside collection has been around in the USA for as long as cars have been on the roads.
Now curbside is rapidly appearing as a drive-through solution across the UK. Naturally catalysed by the recent pandemic, but representing a clear improvement in customer convenience.
How it works:
Imagine being able to order ahead on a road journey for your coffee or sandwich to be freshly prepared.
As you pull up to the location (drive through or car park not necessary) you touch the ‘I Am Here’ button on your order app, notifying the business you have arrived.
Using geolocation and optional additional information you may wish to provide (like vehicle type & colour) the business brings your order directly to you. No parking fees, no walking and queuing in-store – just a quick pit stop, and you’re back on the road.
Queue management – It Is Ready
Businesses can use the ‘It s Ready’ function to notify customers when an order can be collected.
Rather than queuing in-store or around the counter, the customer can carry on with their day, receiving a notification that their order is ready for collection when your staff click ‘It is Ready’.
