Big news for DePIN and for anyone who loves great connectivity with their slice: Dabba WiFi has announced that Domino’s India outlets are going live with free Dabba-powered internet, with the first stores already online and a wider rollout on the way. The announcement came from Dabba’s official social channels today, and it’s exactly the kind of “real world meets Web3” milestone this space has been building toward. X (formerly Twitter)

Why this partnership is a huge deal

Domino’s India is massive. Operated by Jubilant FoodWorks, it’s the brand’s biggest market outside the U.S., with thousands of outlets and aggressive expansion plans—meaning any tech rolled out here reaches customers at national scale. Jubilant FoodWorks+1

Dabba brings Web3-grade infrastructure to the mainstream. Dabba is a DePIN (decentralized physical infrastructure network) that deploys low-cost public Wi-Fi via a nationwide network of hotspots—installed and maintained with local cable operators (LCOs) and coordinated by crypto-native incentives. In short: real hardware, real data usage, real people online. Dabba+2Forbes India+2

Put those together and you have free, reliable Wi-Fi in high-traffic stores that millions already visit—turning every pizza pickup into a gateway to the internet.


What was announced (and what to expect)

  • Live pilot: Dabba says the first Domino’s stores are online now, with more locations queued up. Expect a progressive, national rollout across India. X (formerly Twitter)

  • Customer experience: In participating stores, look for in-store signage and the Dabba WiFi network name (SSID). A quick captive-portal sign-in is typical for public Wi-Fi deployments like Dabba’s. (Dabba publicly documents that it runs thousands of retail and commercial hotspots across India.) Dabba

  • Footfall + dwell time boost: Free, fast Wi-Fi tends to increase time spent in store—good for customers waiting on orders and good for Domino’s operationally.

TL;DR: This is the perfect “anchor venue” use case—dense, real demand that showcases DePIN utility to everyday people.

How Dabba’s model makes this work

  • Demand-driven deployment. Dabba focuses on high-usage zones (think markets, stations, retail corridors), then equips trusted local partners (LCOs) to install and service hardware—keeping costs down and uptime high. Messari

  • Low-cost public Wi-Fi, scaled. Since 2017, Dabba/Wifi Dabba has been building low-cost public Wi-Fi networks across India—thousands of hotspots at retail, residential, and commercial locations—now supercharged by their Web3-powered Dabba Network. Dabba+1

  • Built for scale. Analysts covering Dabba’s rollout note the project’s LCO strategy and large hotspot footprint as key to rapid expansion—exactly what national retail partners need. Messari


What this means for India (and DePIN)

  1. Connectivity where people already are. Making Wi-Fi part of the Domino’s experience normalizes public broadband access for millions—no extra app, no mystery—just connect and go. Jubilant FoodWorks

  2. Proof that DePIN isn’t niche. When a household-name QSR brand lights up DePIN Wi-Fi at scale, the “crypto meets real world” narrative gets tangible. Forbes India

  3. A template for other chains. Grocery, cafes, travel hubs, clinics—any high-footfall venue could copy this playbook with Dabba-style deployments.


For customers: how to try it

  • Visit a participating Domino’s store as the rollout expands.

  • Open Wi-Fi settings and look for Dabba WiFi” (or store signage).

  • Join, complete a quick sign-in, and you’re online while you wait for your order.(Participating locations will grow as the rollout proceeds.) X (formerly Twitter)+1


For builders & supporters: how to get involved

  • Sponsor/own hotspots: You can purchase a Dabba Lite hotspot that Dabba’s on-ground teams deploy in India with an LCO—then track performance via the Dabba Explorer. Dabba

  • Pitch venue rollouts: If you manage retail locations in India, this partnership is a living case study for adding quality Wi-Fi that pays for itself in customer satisfaction and dwell time.


The vibe: pizza, people, and packets

From chai stalls to pizza counters, India’s internet is being built where life happens. With Domino’s bringing scale and Dabba bringing decentralized infrastructure, this rollout feels like a landmark moment: Web3 infrastructure quietly powering a better everyday. Here’s to more stores lighting up—and to a connected India that’s faster, cheaper, and truly community-built. 🍕⚡
