Fuel rewards programs are nothing new in trucking, but Sprint Mart is introducing one specifically structured for professional drivers.
The company announced the launch of a new Professional Driver Rewards program designed for truck drivers, delivery operators, and other commercial vehicle professionals who regularly fuel at Sprint Mart locations.
Unlike standard consumer rewards apps, this program focuses on driver-specific perks tied directly to fuel purchases.
How the Sprint Mart Driver Rewards Program Works
Drivers earn points for every gallon of fuel purchased. Those points can then be redeemed for practical benefits that support life on the road.
The program features two status levels:
- Gold
- Diamond
As drivers move up in tier status, reward value increases.
According to the company, points can be redeemed for:
- Free showers
- Fountain drinks
- Discounts on in-store items such as Bluetooth headsets
- Emergency gear
- Comfort products for the cab
The program is separate from Sprint Mart’s existing general consumer loyalty system and is tailored specifically to professional drivers.
“Our drivers are essential partners in everything we do. … We wanted to create something that truly adds value to their day-to-day lives,” said Herb Hargraves, chief operating officer at Sprint Mart.
Travel Center Amenities and Footprint
Sprint Mart operates 94 locations across Mississippi, Alabama, and Louisiana. Of those, 10 are designated travel centers. Five of those locations currently offer showers, according to the company.
For drivers running regional lanes through the Gulf Coast and Southeast corridors, this may create additional incentive to route fuel stops strategically.
The program is scheduled to go live early this month. Sprint Mart also plans to host live events at select travel plazas, allowing drivers to ask questions and enroll in person.
Loyalty Programs as a Competitive Strategy
While other convenience store chains have focused on payment integrations and broader digital tools, Sprint Mart is positioning its new driver rewards platform as a targeted engagement strategy.
For industry stakeholders, loyalty incentives tied directly to fuel volume can influence routing decisions, especially for owner-operators tracking cost per mile and seeking value-added amenities such as showers and cab essentials.
In addition to launching the driver rewards program, Sprint Mart has also been implementing technology upgrades across its operations, including tools to automate invoice management and streamline cash handling processes.
For truck drivers operating in Mississippi, Alabama, or Louisiana, the new program offers another option to turn routine fuel purchases into tangible on-the-road benefits.
