Tapingo was a mobile commerce application that offers advance ordering for pickup and food delivery services[1] for college campuses .[2]
This functionality was merged into GrubHub mobile application after the acquisition.
The company was acquired by Grubhub in September 2018 for $150 million.[3]
Tapingo is differentiated from other on-demand delivery/logistics companies, such as Waiter.com , Postmates , or DoorDash ,[4] by focusing its efforts on serving the college market. Through Tapingo, users can browse menus, place orders, pay for the meal and schedule the pickup or have it delivered.[5] On certain campuses, students are able to use their university's meal dollars to pay for food.[6]
In the spring of 2012, Tapingo first launched its services on five campuses (Santa Clara University , Loyola Marymount University , Biola University , the University of Maine , and California Lutheran University ), and has since expanded to more than 200 college campuses across the U.S. and Canada, serving 100 markets.[7] To date, Tapingo has received venture funding from Carmel Ventures ,[8] Khosla Ventures ,[9] Kinzon Capital, DCM Ventures[10] and Qualcomm Ventures .[11] [12] [13]
In fall 2015, Tapingo announced expansion plans through major partnership deals with national brands like Chipotle Mexican Grill [14] [15] [16] and 7-Eleven ,[17] regional restaurants such as Taco Bueno ,[18] and global foodservice provider Aramark .[19] [20]
