Latest Initiative of ShiftPixy’s ‘Restaurant Resilience Plan’

IRVINE, Calif., May 12, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — ShiftPixy (NASDAQ: PIXY), a California-based gig engagement platform provider, today announced that as part of its recently introduced Restaurant Resilience Plan, its disruptive, comprehensive technology platform specifically designed for restaurants is now available for free, without initial investment, to help restaurant operators and entrepreneurs as they face the unprecedented impacts of the COVID-19 crisis. Offering a digital platform that manages everything from online ordering through to native delivery driver management, ShiftPixy is making its revolutionary technology more readily available so that restaurants can focus on doing what they do best – offering a great food experience.

“As restaurants across the country confront the difficult realities that this pandemic has forced upon us, we saw an opportunity to support their efforts by making it easier to manage all facets of their business on a single technology platform and without the burden of upfront costs,” said Scott Absher, CEO and co-founder of ShiftPixy. “As part of our Restaurant Resilience Plan, we are in the business of making restaurants better and we are more committed than ever to helping them weather this storm.”

In addition to the free implementation of its platform, ShiftPixy also offers HNOA (hired, non-owned auto liability) insurance to each of its delivery tickets to further ease the struggles of restaurants shifting to a delivery-first environment. Further, ShiftPixy is waving all delivery fees throughout the crisis.
