ANN ARBOR, Mich., May 1, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Have you ever
wished there was technology that automatically turned on the front
porch lights before your Domino's (NYSE: DPZ) pizza is
delivered? Now there is, thanks to a partnership between
Domino's and IFTTT.
The IFTTT platform is a free service that allows people to add
and create countless connections between digital devices and
services with simple conditional statements, called Applets.
Customers are able to create customized Applets for many of the
services and devices they use or own. Domino's, the recognized
world leader in pizza delivery and digital ordering platforms,
is the first restaurant brand to join the IFTTT platform.
To jump-start users' creativity, Domino's has created a few
useful IFTTT Applets, including one that will automatically turn
off their sprinklers when Domino's Tracker says their order is out
for delivery. Customers can also download a Domino's Applet that
turns on their Samsung POWERbot when their order is being prepared
– perfect for when the house needs a good vacuuming before the gang
stops by for a pizza party.
"We understand how much people love using Domino's Tracker, not
only to know where their order is in the preparation and delivery
process, but also to plan around that much-anticipated pizza
arrival," said Dennis Maloney,
Domino's senior vice president – chief digital officer. "And now
we're empowering customers to unleash their imagination as they
create new ways to integrate some of our favorite innovations, like
Domino's Tracker, into their everyday lives. Thanks to the endless
possibilities of IFTTT Applets, customers will be more connected
than ever."
Customers can go to IFTTT.com or the IFTTT app to download
Domino's Tracker-based Applets. Customers can also create their own
Applets uniting their smart devices with any step of Domino's
Tracker.
