Crypto.com Arena opens Amazon Just Walk Out tech powered checkout free stores

Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles is gearing up to launch two new grab and go locations powered by Amazon’s Just Walk Out technology.

Visitors will have the opportunity to take what they want without having to stop to checkout while shopping at the Bud Light Seltzer Market and the Michelob Ultra Market, located on the main concourse between sections 105 and 108. 

The stores are debuting this October in time for NHL and NBA preseason games.

To enter, guests insert their credit card at the entry gates and start shopping. As they select food and beverages, Just Walk Out technology determines what they take from or return to the shelves.

After they exit, the credit card will be charged for the items they took.

“We’re incredibly excited to collaborate with Amazon and Levy Restaurants to welcome Just Walk Out technology to Crypto.com Arena,” says Lee Zeidman, President, Crypto.com Arena. “We’re sure fans will appreciate this simple, safe and quick experience.”

The locations will sell beer, wine, seltzers, ready to drink cocktails, soft drinks, coffee, water and other select food and beverage items. Guests purchasing alcohol will be required to show their ID to a store attendant for age verification. 

“Los Angeles fans who visit the iconic Crypto.com Arena are accustomed to being treated to the finest entertainment experience imaginable, and we’re proud to elevate that experience with the opening of new stores powered by Amazon’s Just Walk Out technology,” says Dilip Kumar, Vice President, AWS Applications.

“Our technology enables fast and frictionless shopping, so we’re excited to help fans in Crypto.com Arena get their refreshments quickly and get right back to the action.”
