Family-owned convenience store chain Kum & Go has selected composable commerce experts Myplanet to further modernize their digital architecture and enhance the customer experience. The multi-year agreement features Myplanet’s Composable.com™ Mobile Commerce Accelerator as part of the foundation of Kum & Go’s one-stop-shop for touchless fueling, fresh food, rewards, and exclusive offers. Ryan Lindsley, VP of Marketing & Digital Strategy at Kum & Go, is looking forward to the next generation of their digital platform. “Myplanet’s Composable.com solution set them apart from other technology and commerce firms during selection. With Composable, we’ll be able to accelerate our speed to market, improve the quality of our customer experience, and quickly integrate other best-in-class commerce technologies to bring the store to our customers - all without sacrificing the ability to build something uniquely Kum & Go,” he says. With Myplanet’s mobile accelerator and best-in-class modular solutions from Auth0, Contentful, P97, and Paytronix, Kum & Go will remain agile as they scale.  “The composable architecture will allow us to adapt quickly and deliver innovative customer-centric products more frequently, driving repeat business, improving customer loyalty, and identifying key opportunities for growth,” says Matt Anderson, Digital Product Manager at Kum & Go. New or improved capabilities will include:

Easier to use customer experience with a refreshed look and feel, aligned to the Kum & Go brand. Enhanced loyalty program, with more engaging ways for customers to earn and redeem rewards. More ways to pay, with support for a variety of payment methods and digital wallets. Greater flexibility and control over the mobile experience and digital platform, making it easier to deliver engaging customer experiences.
