GoPago

GoPago was originally conceived in 2007. Rocco believed there was a need to bridge the gap between merchants and customers. Specially, enabling consumers to skip the line and not have to wait to put in their order. This was the first true order ahead experience. For merchants it helped streamline operations and create more orders beyond walk in traffic. Customers should be able to easily and quickly order and purchase goods in advance through their mobile device, while merchants should be able to easily access and manage potential customers.

GoPago launched its mobile app on August 9, 2011, as Pago, in Mountain View, CA. After piloting with restaurants in Mountain View, Pago rebranded as GoPago and went live in San Francisco on April 3, 2012. GoPago has plans to expand to Dallas, New York, and cities across the U.S. GoPago also made an appearance working with food trucks inside the Microsoft Bing area at SxSW Interactive in March 2012.

Mobile Payments

GoPago's mobile app is available for iOS and Android. GoPago allows users to find participating merchants, browse their offerings, pre-order and pay from their smartphones. Users who pick up orders from brick-and-mortar merchants bypass the line and in-store preparation and payment process.

Mobile Storefront

Merchants manage a ‘mobile storefront,’ which is a digitized version of their brick-and-mortar offerings. Merchants are provided with a receipt printer and 4G-enabled tablet, through which they receive order details and manage their mobile storefront. Merchants track customer activity through the tablet and communicate back to customers about order status and special offers or discounts.
