Levy launches Tap + Go

Levy UK+I has introduced Tap + Go, with Leicester City’s King Power Stadium being the first to benefit from the innovation. Compass’s sports arm says that it will enable matchday fans to experience the future of food and drink purchases, without having to pay at a till, paving the way for a new class of guest experience across Levy-operated venues.

As the first stadium in Europe to implement this technology, Leicester City will provide an enhanced, streamlined customer matchday refreshment journey to its fans at King Power Stadium. Guests simply need to tap a payment card upon entry, pick up their items and walk out of the gates onto the concourse, where their card will be automatically charged – a process which takes a matter of seconds.

Rak Kalidas, commercial director for Levy UK+I, said: “The truly frictionless food and beverage purchase experience created through Tap + Go marks a major step forward for Leicester City and the fan experience at the King Power Stadium. In an industry currently teeming with innovation, this technology is a fine example of how Levy UK+I stands out in taking the hospitality sector forwards further and faster.”

Anthony Mundy, Leicester City’s operations director, added: “We are constantly looking at new solutions to improve the stadium experience for fans. The launch of Tap + Go at our venue will enable us to take the fan experience to the next level, by making it easier than ever for guests to purchase and enjoy our first-class food and beverage offerings.”
