A great &#8216;innovative&#8217; hospitable gesture and certainly an added value for your venue with mobile payments in mind! And besides that, it\u2019s another reason to have a drink at your venue!<\/p>\n<p>I am glad that I will soon get a new phone, the current battery is low within no time! And I am not even a fanatic user of a lot of apps on my phone. The rapidly dying battery has become a well-known social problem that especially affects the younger users up to 35 years. Thankfully more and more mobile charging stations are placed at public places like the library, at airports and railway stations but also in the hospitality industry. And the welcoming gesture remains hospitable even if you let them pay, your guests are already happy that they can stay online!<\/p>\n<h3>Mobile charging stations are rapidly evolving<\/h3>\n<p>At the end of 2012 we\u2019ve spotted the first charging station for cell phones in the Netherlands at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.horecatrends.com\/en\/charging-station-at-stravinsky-food-beverage\/\" target=\"_blank\">Stravinsky eten &amp; drinken <\/a>in Hengelo (The Netherlands).
