San Diego Padres, Tappit to implement contactless mobile payment tech in Petco Park

Wednesday 10 March 2021 13:19 CET | News

The global payment and data ecosystem for sports, events, stadiums, and venues Tappit has unveiled a multi-year partnership with the San Diego Padres

This partnership marks Tappit’s first with an MLB team, and it will help ensure a safe return when Padres fans are allowed back into Petco Park for the 2021 baseball season with the implementation of seamless contactless mobile payment technology throughout the stadium.    

As part of the agreement, Tappit will provide its white label mobile payment technology for Padres fans through the team’s MLB Ballpark app. This will allow fans to make purchases using only their cell phone. Fans can link their preferred payment method to the app to enjoy a frictionless experience at concession and merchandise stands throughout the stadium to purchase food, drinks, and merchandise. The Padres are enabled the ability to send personalised vouchers and incentives directly to a fans' mobile wallet. 'Padres Pay' links directly to fans' Compadres Rewards loyalty account for a seamless user journey. The data and insights delivered by the platform will help the Padres maximise the fan experience and ensure operations are as efficient as possible.
