Founded in 2019, WARPSPD is a consumer engagement and loyalty platform that enables retailers to TARGET, ENGAGE & improve LOYALTY of their consumers helping them drive recurring traffic, conversion, and profitability. WARPSPD currently works with some of the largest global retail brands.

WARPSPD’s LOQ8 (locate /lō kāt/) solution, a hyperlocal deals app for cannabis businesses, enables licensed dispensaries to effectively and efficiently engage consumers with compelling features that allow them to save time and money on their next purchase. Consumers receive notifications on deals as they pass through targeted geo-fences; i.e., if a consumer uses the app inside a dispensary, the deals of that specific dispensary are shown, along with a unique “welcome” message.

PayQwick CEO Bob Craig shares, “Our dispensary and retail clients will greatly benefit from WARPSPD’s capabilities. PayQwick clients prioritize consumer digital experiences and intuitive technology to help drive brand loyalty and ultimately increase sales.”

WARPSPD Founder and Executive Chairman John Corpus adds, “The data speaks for itself – our technology drives revenue and consumer engagement for retailers. We are excited to increase our presence in cannabis and believe dispensaries will quickly discover our platform’s proven ability to drive repeat business.
