LoyalFree The high street app LoyalFree has announced new ways their technology can quickly adapt to support local businesses during the COVID-19 outbreak. A series of new ‘Home Delivery’ trails are now appearing on the app, detailing which local businesses can offer their services through online or safe delivery options during a period of social distancing.
BID Events are offering technical support and equipment hire for newly assigned home workers. They have a large stock of IT equipment including software, laptops, macbooks, ipads, iphones, printers, desktop computers and monitors.
They are also offering business continuity plans for those suddenly needing to get staff to work from home.
ShoppAppy, the digital local shopping platform, has re-engineering its tech solution to enable a temporary local delivery to support communities to choose to shop local even if they feel they need to stay at home. They are also encouraging businesses, town and city centre, as well as market, operators to join their digital platform for FREE as the footfall and spending impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic escalates.
