Mobile Bytes Introduces Gallo Center's "eBartender"

MODESTO, Calif., Jan. 31, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Mobile Bytes, LLC. (www.mobilebytes.com), a Phoenix, Arizona based provider of Smartphone Food & Beverage apps has launched the Gallo Center for the Arts "eBartender" app for iPhone and Android Smartphones. The app allows patrons to pre-order and pay for food and beverages for fast pickup either prior to a show or at intermission.

Patrons of the Center are encouraged to visit the iPhone App Store or Android Market and search for the Gallo Center for the Arts eBartender. Customers who download the app and opt in for text messages and e-mail will then be able to select and purchase beverages and snacks offered at Gallo Center concession stands. eBartender users can place their orders hours in advance on the day of a performance, and then pick them up simply by presenting their phone, picture ID or printed receipt at the eBartender concession line at the Center. The app's users also will be able to receive exclusive offers.   

"We are delighted to be working with Mobile Bytes on this exciting application, and look forward to greatly increasing our concession revenues while providing patrons with an innovative and convenient service," said Al Poulus, Director of Technology and Theater Operations for the Gallo Center for the Arts.

"Concert halls and arena apps are a natural extension of our proven YWaiter technology platform," relates Dan Calderone, CEO of Mobile Bytes, LLC. "The Gallo Center for the Arts is a world-class partner for proving the concept."

At venues where food and beverages are permitted during performances, Mobile Bytes has created apps where food and drinks can be delivered right to your seats, so you don't miss any of the action. In Phoenix, AZ, the "Celebrity Theatre Personal Bartender" app was launched to coincide with performances by comedian Dane Cook.

Venues can acquire their own white-label app at no cost and can elect to pass a small per-order surcharge to their customers if desired.

The Gallo Center for the Arts eBartender and Celebrity Theatre Personal Bartender apps are available at the iTunes App Store and the Android Market, and are free to download.
