Dash App For Restaurants And Bars Introduces Venue Vibes

NEW YORK, Nov. 4, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Dash Software, LLC, a leading mobile payment platform, announced today the debut of Venue Vibes, a unique feature that remotely indicates the atmosphere of participating restaurants, bars, and clubs using real-time data. The app, which rose this year to popularity among savvy Millennials, is best known for allowing users to view, pay and split tabs from their smartphones.

In pursuit of their core mission to help users plan a better night out, Dash is now the first mobile app capable of revealing the "vibe" of approximately 50 venues in New York City and 30 venues in Chicago  – with the indicators "lively," "active," "relaxed," and "quiet" – before patrons even step foot inside.

"We founded Dash on the principle that few things feel better than paying your restaurant or bar tab on-the-go," said CEO and co-founder Jeff McGregor. "It turns out knowing how crowded a venue is before you show up feels pretty good too. That's the concept behind Venue Vibes – another way Dash is helping its users plan a better night out with friends."

Venue Vibes provides an accurate gauge of restaurant and bar atmosphere that changes with the ebb and flow of guest volume. By leveraging its patented, proprietary integration technology, Dash continuously tracks how many tabs are open in their venues' POS (point of sales) systems against the venue's capacity, making real-time data on a venue's "mood" available to the public for the first time.

Whether guests are seeking a quiet restaurant to host a business meeting or a rowdy happy hour to kick off the weekend, Dash users can use Venue Vibes to select the ideal location for their needs.
