Waze and Dunkin’ Donuts partnered to save consumers time both on the road and in line by connecting the Dunkin’ Donuts’ On The Go Mobile Ordering system to Waze.

Waze Order Ahead is one example of how the navigation app can personalize the driving experience for its users while creating a new opportunity for brands to further engage their fans within the context of a drive.
