April 1 Alert: Boston Pizza Soars to New Heights with the Launch of BP Wingman App

New service provides 24/7 guest support for any and all situations

MISSISSAUGA, ON, April 1, 2015 /CNW/ - Boston Pizza, Canada's largest casual dining chain, is committed to delivering great guest experiences. Today, the brand takes the experience one step further with the introduction of the "BP Wingman" service. Accessible through a new mobile phone application, guests in need can order up a BP Wingman to help them out of sticky situations. From bad dates to a missing goalie in the final game of the season, the BP Wingman is able to provide emergency help – along with a two-four of Boston Pizza's famous wings. 

"Just in time for the hockey playoffs, Boston Pizza has a new way to provide our guests with another memorable and unique experience," says Steve Silverstone, Executive Vice President of Marketing for Boston Pizza International. "With the launch of the BP Wingman app we'll be taking the guest experience to the next level and really setting ourselves apart from our competitors."

To summon the BP Wingman, Boston Pizza guests simply download the BP Wingman app and hit 'order.' Users can expect the BP Wingman to arrive within moments to solve the issue at hand – from a saucy face that needs a clean up to a lending a hand for a high-five when your team scores a goal. Every Boston Pizza location across Canada will have a BP Wingman on standby to swoop in whenever his services are needed and always equipped with his sidekick – a tasty two-four of Boston Pizza wings.

"My job is simple," explains The BP Wingman.  "Help Boston Pizza guests with any of life's sticky situations so that they can focus on more important things, like who scored the winning goal or if they should order one or two flavours of wings with their BP Wings Two-Four."

The BP Wingman service officially launches today and is available nationwide. The app is available for download on all mobile operating systems.
