Koala Launches New Integrated iOS App for MOD Pizza

    BROOKLYN, NY, October 19, 2021 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Koala, an industry-leading platform that creates premium, customizable apps and websites for restaurants, recently launched its new iOS app, with MOD Pizza as its debut brand. Koala is the first customer experience platform to bring dynamic cross-selling and multi-channel consistency to enterprise restaurant brands.

The MOD app features an elevated, branded design with an image-driven user experience at the core of the browsing experience for fans of the restaurant brand specializing in individual artisan-style pizzas and salads and has more than 500 locations nationwide. The app debuted in the Top 100 in the Food & Drink category, and currently has a 4.8 rating.

"As one of the fastest-growing restaurant chains in the United States, MOD has a huge and loyal digital customer base," said Brett Spiegel, Co-Founder & Chief Operating Officer of Koala. "MOD has been an outstanding partner to work with on their web ordering channel, and we couldn't be more pleased to have them as the inaugural brand on our new app."

Through the Koala Platform, the MOD team can make changes to the app's layout, key features and messaging directly. With Koala's app, updates appear in real-time, eliminating the lengthy app submission process for minor updates. In addition, the app promotes dynamic cross-sell product recommendations. Koala's app also integrates with quick-service restaurant industry leaders Olo and Punchh. Olo offers a consolidated ordering and delivery experience for restaurant operators and Punchh curates a customer-first loyalty program.

"The Koala team has been a great, longtime partner in helping us elevate our guest experience and giving the team here at MOD more control over that experience," said Kevin Flaherty, Vice President of Digital Marketing at MOD Pizza. "We're excited to deepen our partnership with the Koala team by adding app ordering alongside the web experience we launched together last year."

Koala is an industry-leading platform that creates premium, customizable apps for restaurants to offer digital ordering. Koala works with more than 4,000 restaurants, including leading brands such as Shake Shack, P.F. Chang's, TGI Fridays, Goop Kitchen and Veggie Grill.
