Golden Gate Petroleum, a family-owned business with more than 30 locations across California, Nevada, Colorado and Utah, today launched Golden Gate Rewards, a new loyalty program and mobile app. It’s live now at participating locations.

The program serves two groups: local customers who stop in for fuel, coffee and fresh food, and professional drivers who rely on Golden Gate truck stops along the region’s major highway corridors. Golden Gate Rewards is powered by Patron Points, the award-winning loyalty platform built for convenience retailers.

“Our customers have been loyal to us for over 50 years. Now we get to return the favor,” said Randy Shores, marketing manager at Golden Gate Petroleum. “Whether you’re filling up on the way to work or hauling freight across four states, Golden Gate Rewards delivers real savings to your pocket every time you stop.”

Rewards for Everyday Drivers

Members save 2¢ per gallon on fuel and earn points on every purchase, in-store and at the pump. New members get 100 bonus points plus a free coffee or fountain drink when they join. Download the Golden Gate Rewards app or visit www.goldengategas.com for full program details.

Built for Professional Drivers

The Trucker Program rewards drivers with higher earning rates as they fuel more each month. It includes four tiers, bonus points on diesel, DEF, coffee and fresh food, plus 100 bonus points and a free coffee or fountain drink at sign-up. Drivers can pick up a Golden Gate Rewards card in-store to enroll, then track their tier status in the app. Tier details are available at www.goldengategas.com.

“Professional drivers keep this country moving, and they keep our business moving too,” said Shores. “They shouldn’t have to go to a national chain to get a rewards program worth their time. The more miles they put in with us, the more they earn.”

“Most retailers must pick between a program for their local regulars and one for professional drivers. Golden Gate didn’t want to choose, and with Patron Points they didn’t have to,” said Erik Ogren, CEO of Patron Points. “One app, one program, built for the commuter and the long-haul driver alike.”
