ALFI, Inc.’s Plans
On June 17, the company announced that Miami, where it has a fulfilment center, would be one of the first ten cities where Uber and Lyft would use its ALFI tablets.

Its Digital Out of Home (DOOH) feature makes it unique that may prove disruptive in the advertising world. It is also affordable for small and medium enterprises. ALFI is focused on viewer privacy and honest reporting. It claims that it does not store personal information and intend to provide real-time customer information such as demography, interactivity, and usage.
