Ping-a-Truck Planned for later

The group is hungry.
Bring the truck.

A planned way for a group to show nearby trucks that they are hungry. Ping-a-Truck and Hot Spots are not available today, and a response is never guaranteed.

The planned experience

Fifteen people. One open hour.

A group signals interest. A nearby truck decides whether to respond.

Nursing staff stand behind the counter of a hospital ward station.

Ping it

One person can tap. The more people tap from the app, the stronger the Hot Spot.

Hotspot Pot Planned for later

Show the truck the group is serious.

The proposed experience lets a group pool an optional tip so a truck can see the interest before deciding to travel.

Hotspot Pot is not available today. Final payment timing, fees and supported areas will be shown before the feature becomes available.

No guarantee. A pot is not a booking.
