“While our core remains unchanged, our company’s product evolution and rebranding signify the strides we are taking in this new phase of growth and our unwavering dedication to delivering enhanced value with even greater speed,” said Alex Kinnier, Upside co-founder and CEO. “Because when Upside finds and delivers the lost value between buyer and seller, each gets more and we create more value for the entire ecosystem.”

Following one year of successful testing and positive consumer feedback, Upside’s mobile payment option generates a $20 million run rate in retailer sales. The option will launch to all Upside users and additional leading food retailers in the coming weeks.

This new payment option offers advantages for both users and retailers. Users enjoy a seamless, secure mobile payment process and a quicker cashback experience, leading to increased satisfaction. These enhancements drive improved user engagement and retention, providing retailers with more opportunities to earn incremental profit. The number of participating retailers has doubled since last year, reaching a total of 100,000 retailers on the Upside platform.
