With comfort and convenience front of mind, Costa Express has introduced the new easy-to-use contactless ordering feature to serve busy coffee lovers, via the Costa Coffee Club app. Customers order their favourite drink from their mobile phone – they won’t even need to touch the screen of the coffee machine!
The innovative new system, which is only activated when a customer is in close proximity of the Costa Express machine, will be available to use through the Costa Coffee Club app. Simply register or log-in to an existing account and click on the ‘Express’ icon which sits on the main landing page of the Costa Coffee club app. Scan the QR code, which is located on the Costa Express machine to browse the wide range of options available and select your barista quality drink of choice. Place one of the iconic red Costa Express cups onto the drinks platform and tap ‘make drink’ to watch the perfect pour. To complete the contactless experience, payment instructions will be provided on the innovative touch screen of the coffee machine.
Managing Director, Scott Martin at Costa Express, said: “We’re delighted to roll out this state-of-the-art mobile contactless ordering system, which ultimately demonstrates our position as the category leader in intelligent coffee. Costa Express Free Coffee Day demonstrated how hard we’ve worked to revolutionise the self-serve experience.”
