Zippin Walk-Up aims to transform the traditional food and beverage concession stand experience into one that is more seamless, stress-free and accessible for all.
The Columbus Blue Jackets hockey team recently teamed up with Zippin and Nationwide Arena to launch checkout-free shopping for fans with the help of the platform. The Zippin Walk-Up platform is now being used at the Bread Financial Score & Go -- located inside the arena and operated by Delaware North -- and makes soft drink, water, and beer purchases quick and easy for visitors.
"The Blue Jackets are thrilled to offer our fans and guests of Nationwide Arena a new, fast paced concession experience for a fast paced game. Fans will not miss a second of the action thanks to the Bread Financial Score & Go," said Blue Jackets Chief Operating Officer Cameron Scholvin."
Digitizing the classic concession stand does not only boost convenience and reduce long lineups, but also ensures a more enjoyable and inclusive experience for those with mobility issues.
