Domino's can now deliver pizza almost anywhere using GPS pins
You no longer need to be at a fixed address if you're craving pizza. Domino's isa Pinpoint Delivery feature in the US that, as the name implies, will send pies to a GPS pin you drop on the map. You can get pizza at the beach, or feed the soccer team without leaving the field. The company tells Engadget that deliveries are available anywhere a restaurant serves, so long as the driver can safely pull over.
You'll have to pre-pay for your order online and agree to text updates on your driver's status. You can track theas you would with regular deliveries. Sorry, you can’t pay cash once the driver arrives. Once they do, you can turn on a"visual signal" on your phone to flag them and complete the pickup.
The company claims it's the first"quick-service" restaurant chain in the US to offer GPS pin-based deliveries. That's a narrow category, and some delivery apps like Instacart at least offer the option to modify your location once you pick an address. Still, it's clear the company is betting that a rideshare-style approach to delivery could help it win business.
