New app enables customers to have Thorntons with them 24/7.
Louisville Ky.-based Thorntons has announced the launch of its brand-new proprietary, free mobile phone app available for iPhone, Android and Blackberry users.
The mobile phone app, powered by OpenStore by GasBuddy, is free for all Thorntons customers at http://thorntons1.com/MobileApps.aspx.
“Thorntons consumers are extremely tech-savvy and more mobile than ever,” said Matt Thornton, president & CEO of Thorntons Inc., which operates over 162 gasoline and convenience stores, car washes and travel plazas in five states: Kentucky, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, and Tennessee. “The creation of this app will enable them to have Thorntons with them 24/7. Along with the multitude of features our app offers, Thorntons customers will stay fully informed of our daily and weekly promotions, gas price alerts, and be able to manage their FREEquency Rewards card, to name just a few of the options,” he noted.
