Deliver the ‘quick’ in your QSR by introducing a digital drive thru to elevate the customer experience.

In August 2020, Taco Bell launched the Go Mobile framework, which enhances the digital drive-thru experience for customers. It includes features like a dual drive-thru with a dedicated mobile pickup lane, smart kitchen technology, mobile pickup shelves, kiosk ordering and a faster “bellhop” experience.

Burger King is also modernizing the customer experience with the installation of 40,000 screens across 10,000 drive thrus.
