IRWIN, Calif. — Taco Bell is preparing to launch mobile ordering in its U.S. stores later this year, reports Nation’s Restaurant News (NRN).
According to the NRN, the company has developed an app that allows customers to order ahead using smartphones. The system uses a GPS locator to recognize when the person placing the order is near, giving the kitchen a signal to prepare the order. The beta test has been rolled out in a few Orange County, Calif. locations. [Nation’s Restaurant News]
