Sell the most when the network is worst.
Cashless venues see 15–30% higher per-capita spend, and every point of that uplift depends on connectivity. Zeva carries orders and payments across attendees' phones to a gateway, so the peak that used to kill throughput becomes the moment you sell the most.
What Ordering & payments includes
Concessions, merch and cashless that keep processing at peak.
Mobile ordering transport
In-seat delivery, express pickup and vendor ordering route over the mesh to your ordering provider. Menus, pricing and fulfillment stay where they are.
Tap-to-pay and top-ups
Cashless transactions reach your payments provider through a gateway with backhaul and settle exactly as they do today.
Priority lanes
Guaranteed throughput for vendors, VIP sections and sponsors who pay for it. Premium routing is a protocol feature, not a second network.
Store-and-forward
When no gateway is in reach, orders queue on the phone with honest feedback to the attendee and deliver the moment a path appears.
Encrypted end to end
Relaying phones carry ciphertext they cannot read. Your payment provider's encryption stays intact and Zeva never sees card data.
Throughput reporting
Orders carried, latency and gateway load per event, so finance can see what the network earned.
From the attendee's phone to your systems.
- 1
An attendee places an order
The app hands the request to Zeva instead of waiting on a saturated carrier.
- 2
The mesh routes it to a gateway
Packets hop phone to phone along the path Zeva selects, with relay leaders in dense areas so traffic doesn't flood.
- 3
Your provider receives it as usual
The gateway forwards the request over backhaul. Confirmation returns along the mesh to the attendee's phone.
