Still Not Active on trunow? Here’s Why That’s Costing You Sales (and How to Fix It Today)

If you’ve been following or using MostEdge for a while, you’ve heard us talk about trunow – a cashback and marketing platform we’ve recommended to our retailers for years. Many of you have signed up, created your business listings, or at least looked into what the platform can do.

But here’s the deal…

If you’re not actively using trunow in Q2 2025, you’re leaving real money on the table.

Right now, trunow is experiencing its highest user engagement ever, with a record number of app users scanning receipts, earning cash back and – most importantly – looking for more local businesses to shop at in-network.

And that next store they want to support could be yours… if you’re active.

Why This Matters Now More Than Ever

Over the past two years, consumer habits have dramatically shifted. Today’s shoppers are mobile-first, deal-driven, and loyal to brands that give them rewards and relevance. They’re using apps to search local businesses, explore offers in real time, and make purchasing decisions on the go.

trunow has leaned into this shift – and its user base is exploding because of it (at over a million users).

In Q2 2025 alone:

• trunow reported a 28% increase in monthly active users
• Receipt scanning is up by 34%, revealing higher in-app engagement
• Over 72% of users are now searching for deals and store listings in real-time while near retail locations
• Consumer demand for more participating retailers is at an all-time high

If you’re not showing up in the trunow app as an active retailer, your competition probably is.

A Quick Refresher: What trunow Does for Retailers

For those who haven’t activated their accounts in a while or never fully dove in, here’s what trunow offers you as a retailer – starting with a no-cost local business listing:

✅ Local Business Listing

Get discovered instantly by nearby customers through the app. When users search for gas stations, convenience stores, liquor stores, and vape shops in the area, your physical location appears in their local searches – with your business hours, services, and contact info available.

🛒 Promote Your In-Store Deals

Push real-time offers like BOGO snack, discounted fuel, or limited-time items straight to app users nearby. These local advertising features drive immediate visits to your store.

📸 Track with Receipt Scanning

When customers scan receipts, you get actionable insights into what people are actually buying. That’s purchase data you can use to stock smarter, run better promos, and increase profits.

💰 Offer Cash Back (Without the Admin Headache)

trunow handles the logistics. You decide what you want to promote – maybe a specific product or a dollar amount per visit – and the app takes care of tracking and payouts. All you see is increased foot traffic and higher sales.

📲 SMS & Push Notification Marketing

Get ahead of the curve with built-in SMS marketing and push notification marketing tools. These allow you to connect with your current and potential customers in real time, alerting them about deals, business updates, or rewards instantly.

📊 Access Real-Time Insights

trunow provides easy-to-read analytics dashboards, so you’re not guessing what works. You’ll know which deals bring people in, which products are selling, and how many customers are engaging with your business listing.

Real-Time Demand Is Surging – But Retailer Supply Is Lagging

Here’s what we at MostEdge are hearing directly from trunow’s internal team and verified user surveys:

“We want more stores to shop at.”

Customers are earning cashback from their everyday receipts and browsing the app daily. But in many areas, there aren’t enough active retailers for them to engage with. They’re literally asking for more places in the network – and if your store is in a high-traffic or underserved area, they may already be searching for you.

If you’re inactive on trunow – or if your business info is outdated – you’re not just invisible… you’re irrelevant to thousands of ready-to-shop customers.

Why Staying Active Pays Off (Literally)

Let’s break down the value of being a fully active trunow partner:

• 📍 Visibility: You shop up first when nearby users search for gas, groceries, or deals
• 💬 Engagement: Send push notifications or SMS updates instantly to increase traffic
• 💵 Conversion: Reward-driven shoppers spend more and return more often
• 📊 Insights: Use purchase trends from receipt scanning to run smarter promotions
• 🔁 Retention: Cashback offers and timely deals keep your store top-of-mind

This Isn’t Just for Big Players – It’s Built for Small Businesses

trunow’s tools are designed to be user-friendly, cost-effective, and powerful for small businesses. You don’t need an in-house marketing team or tech support staff to take advantage of what the platform offers.

Whether you run a single-location convenience store, a neighborhood gas station, or a family-owned grocery mart, you have the opportunity to tap into digital revenue without a complicated setup.
