Pinch me moment as Zippin notches up checkout free stores milestone
Zippin has hit one million shoppers served worldwide at one of its 73 checkout free stores operated by partners including Levy, Aramark Sports + Entertainment, and Delaware North.
Krishna Motukuri, CEO and Co-founder, Zippin, tweeted: “This is one of those "pinch me" moments for us.”
“Even at the beginning of 2022, we didn't think it would happen this quickly. Now we are looking at crossing two million shoppers served in less than four months! A big thank you to all of our partners for making this possible.”
Basketball fever
As basketball season gets underway, Zippin last week announced six new stores powered by its tech in NBA arenas this autumn.
Toyota Center, home to the Houston Rockets, recently launched two checkout-free stores ahead of the season opener on 21st October, and Gainbridge Fieldhouse closes out the final phase of its “Fieldhouse of the Future” renovations with two more frictionless shopping locations, giving Pacer fans four shops to choose from.
Capital One Arena added two Zippin Lanes in October as well, making Zippin the platform behind one out of four professional basketball arenas nationwide.
"The Fieldhouse of the Future renovations have made the most iconic venue in the NBA even better, and the state of the art technology at our Fast Break concession locations, through our partnership with Zippin, are a vivid example of how these upgrades connect with a new generation of fans,” said Pacers Sports & Entertainment CEO Rick Fuson.
“These experiences within the experience of being at Gainbridge Fieldhouse are a big part of what sets us apart as one of the most recognisable basketball arenas in the world.”
“Operators want the best technology to make the fan experience really stand out, but they need it to be reliable, accurate, and flexible,” said Motukuri.
“There’s a lot on the line when the doors open for these large-scale events, and we hear over and over that Zippin is the only solution that’s able to deliver.”
“We lead with the most accurate technology on the market and come through with proven and flexible deployment from retrofits to the extremely popular, Zippin Lane.”
