FAIRFAX, VA – June 15, 2026 – Kwik Stop, the largest locally owned chain of convenience stores in Dubuque, Iowa, has launched a fully upgraded version of its Kwik Stop Rewards app, powered by Liquid Barcodes, the leading loyalty platform for convenience retailers. Now available on iOS and Android across all 10 Kwik Stop locations in Dubuque and Peosta, the new app gives customers a faster, more rewarding experience at the pump, in-store, and beyond, including the option to give back to the community they call home.

The upgraded Kwik Stop Rewards app gives customers access to the full Liquid Barcodes platform, including:

  • Fuel Loyalty: New members receive an instant 25-cent-per-gallon discount on up to 20 gallons upon sign-up and continue earning points on every gallon of gas and every dollar of diesel purchased at the pump.

  • Loyalty Points & Rewards: Earn points on every dollar spent on eligible in-store purchases and redeem them as Rewards Cash in-store, as fuel discounts at the pump, or donate points directly to a local nonprofit. Earn points for referring friends and members can start redeeming with as few as 100 points.

  • Stamp Cards: Earn stamps on coffee, fountain drinks, donuts, sandwiches, milk, and more through Kwik Stop Rewards Club Offers, with free items after qualifying purchases, including a free car wash at participating locations.

  • Gamification: Play daily games to earn bonus points, free products, and prizes. Enter contests to win prizes by completing short surveys.

  • Tobacco Loyalty: Age-verified members receive manufacturer-funded tobacco discount offers on a variety of popular brands from Altria, RJR, and soon PMI USA, delivered directly through the app after completing a secure verification process.

  • Order Ahead & Delivery: Customers can place orders for quick pick up or delivery through Kwik Stop's existing delivery service, powered by Vroom Delivery, available at participating locations.

  • Store Locator: Members can find nearby Kwik Stop locations, check their rewards cash balance, and view current promotions all in one place.

  • Customer Success Support: Kwik Stop will work directly with the Liquid Barcodes Customer Success team to drive program performance, member engagement, and long-term loyalty growth.

  • Coming Soon - Car Wash Subscription: Kwik Stop guests at participating locations will be able to manage car wash subscriptions directly through the app.

"Kwik Stop has been part of this community for more than 40 years, and our customers deserve a rewards experience that reflects that commitment," said Jason Neuhaus, director of retail, Kwik Stop. "The Liquid Barcodes platform gave us the ability to build on the success of our previous rewards program while creating a foundation for future growth. With Kwik Stop Rewards, customers can earn rewards on fuel purchases, earn points on in-store items, and even support local causes they care about. We’re proud to offer a program that provides real value to the customers and communities that have supported us for generations."

Saurabh Swarup, general manager of North America at Liquid Barcodes, added, "Kwik Stop is exactly the kind of community-rooted retailer that makes loyalty mean something. They have been serving Dubuque for over four decades, and the depth of that relationship with their customers is something the Liquid Barcodes platform is built to strengthen. The ability to turn everyday purchases into community support right through the app is a perfect example of what this platform can do in the right hands. We are honored to be their partner."
