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.

Once the app has been downloaded, customers will be able to stay on top of everything going on with their neighborhood store, as well as the over 160 Thorntons located throughout the Midwest. The app displays locations, in-store promotions, food menus and much more while customers can send feedback, review job postings, and receive time-sensitive electronic mobile coupons. Specific app features include:

The Thorntons Mobile App GPS
Customers can find the closest Thorntons stores and get directions from their current location. Find nearby stores based on city and state or zip code. There is always a Thorntons store close by and the Thorntons Mobile App will quickly and easily guide them there.

Store Features and Services
Customers can find a station with a particular fuel type (e.g., diesel, e85 or kerosene) or locate the nearest 24-hour Thorntons store. With the Thorntons Mobile App, it couldn’t be easier.

Gas Price Alerts
Customers can sign up to receive instant gas price alerts before prices rise at any Thorntons location via push notifications.
