WINSTON-SALEM, N.C., March 16, 2020 (Newswire.com) - The COVID-19 pandemic is wreaking havoc on the restaurant industry, with dine-in demand being banned or seriously compromised in many cities across the nation. The decrease in dine-in options has created serious demand for curbside pickup. The startup SWIPEBY has seen a 100X increase in interest in the last 48 hours as thousands of restaurants look to their turnkey curbside pickup platform as a way to safely serve their customers.
“SWIPEBY and curbside pickup have allowed us to offer a low-touch-point takeout solution to our guests. We are seeing a strong uptake in orders and guest satisfaction,” says Mike Targett Owner of The Loop restaurant in Winston Salem.
Launched in 2019 by founder Carl Turner, SWIPEBY provides its curbside pickup platform to over 100 restaurants in North Carolina and is expanding nationwide.
“We are dedicated to the success of our partners and helping them get through this season,” says Turner. “SWIPEBY has reduced its fees significantly with current partners and will enter into all new relationships with no monthly fees, and no revenue sharing, making the platform essentially free for the restaurant.”
SWIPEBY ensures the restaurants can provide a seamless curbside experience with automated notifications of the customer's arrival, made possible through GPS integrated technology.
