    Post-transaction advertising offers new revenue stream for convenience stores

    Convenience stores looking to monetize their digital platforms have a new opportunity in post-transaction advertising, according to Jon Nolz, CEO and co-founder of MomentScience. Speaking on CSP's "At Your Convenience" podcast in May at the RMN Forum in Chicago, Knowles explained how c-store operators can generate revenue by displaying targeted offers immediately after customers complete purchases through delivery, order-ahead or pickup apps. "It's the moment that really matters where you have people with their wallet out after they make that payment," Nolz said. "Why not get a free trial?" The technology integrates into existing systems through simple API or SDK implementations, with some partners completing setup in under an hour. Nolz emphasized balancing monetization with customer experience, recommending retailers maintain control over which ads appear rather than simply maximizing revenue. While many c-store chains lack dedicated retail media personnel, Nolz sees significant potential as digital ordering continues growing. Non-competitive offers like streaming service trials or loyalty program sign-ups work particularly well in the post-transaction moment, he said.

    ‘Having a good cup of coffee can make a huge difference when it comes down to loyalty’

    In this episode of “At Your Convenience,” CSP Editor Chuck Ulie talked with Yannis Apostolopoulos, CEO of the Irvine, California-based Specialty Coffee Association, at CSP’s Dispensed Beverages Forum in Lombard, Illinois. “We want to foster a global coffee community and support activities to make coffee more sustainable, equitable and thriving as an endeavor for the entire value chain,” Apostolopoulos said on the podcast, which was recorded in April. The CEO also discussed how he’s seen a steady shift toward specialty coffee consumption in the United States—as well as what “specialty coffee” means. “There is not a clear line what is specialty coffee and what is not specialty coffee,” Apostolopoulos said. “I would say it’s a continuum.” He also discussed trends in coffee consumption around the world, how the association creates standards—and loyalty. “Having a good cup of coffee can make a huge difference when it comes down to loyalty, and my ask from the c-store community would be really take good care of your coffee offering. It can make a lot of difference for you,” he said.  Join us for Outlook Leadership 2026! https://informaconnect.com/outlook-leadership/?utm_source=skot&utm_medium=radio&utm_campaign=ol26  Check out more from CSP Daily News: https://www.cspdailynews.com/

    Retail media success hinges on outcomes, not just scale

    Retail media networks need to shift their focus from scale and impressions to measurable outcomes if they want to earn sustained brand investment, according to Jake Kaiser, general manager at Par Retail. Speaking on CSP's "At Your Convenience" podcast in May at the RMN Forum in Chicago, Kaiser emphasized that while loyalty programs provide valuable customer data, they typically capture only approximately 25% of transactions—creating a significant ceiling for proving ROI to CPG partners. "Scale does not equal value necessarily," Kaiser said.  Kaiser outlined how identity resolution technology and AI can help retailers expand visibility beyond loyalty members, enabling them to identify and measure outcomes across their entire customer base. This approach allows retailers to prove that specific campaigns drive incremental sales at individual locations. "The aspirational goal should be 100% of our customers are people we can prove are individual human beings," Kaiser said, adding that AI-powered orchestration will enable faster, more intelligent campaign execution while maintaining quality.
