What makes GreatStop advertising different
Travelers come to GreatStop to make a stop decision, so advertising here is built to be helpful to travelers, not generic banner advertising. Partner businesses become part of that decision with relevant information and perks.
GreatStop Perks
Offer EV travelers a reason to choose your stop:
- Free coffee with purchase
- Meal discounts
- Free kids’ drink
- Traveler specials
- Hotel or local-business perks
Perks can be surfaced when your business is relevant to a traveler's stop, at the moment they are comparing options.
Independent by design
GreatStop travelers trust the recommendations because rankings stay independent of advertising:
- Paid placement never affects GreatStop Scores, stop selection, or rankings
- Sponsored visibility is always clearly labeled for travelers
- Partner businesses appear only when relevant to the stop being compared
Know what GreatStop actually measures
During the holiday campaign, Founding Partners receive Monday Partner Insights emails summarizing available measured activity associated with their sponsorship — six in total. Where supported by existing tracking, reports may include:
- How often the charging location near your business appeared in travelers' planned stops
- Which GreatStop corridors those trips covered
- Sponsored-placement views and ad interactions, where tracking is supported
These reports measure activity within GreatStop — not confirmed store visits, purchases, or sales. No estimated visits, no inferred foot traffic, no inflated numbers — GreatStop reports only what it measures, and planned stops are recommendations, not confirmed visits.
Who is a good fit?
GreatStop works best for businesses travelers can use during a charging stop. A good fit is usually:
