Bolla Oil Corporation has selected PAR Technology Corporation to launch Bolla Rewards, the company’s first customer loyalty program. The initiative is designed to drive repeat in-store visits, deliver immediate customer value, and deepen engagement across more than 160 locations throughout the New York Tri-State area.

PAR Retail powers both the Bolla Rewards program and the brand’s mobile app experience. The platform is intended to surface insights that drive smarter engagement decisions as the program grows. Future capabilities, including tobacco loyalty, are planned for a later phase.

Savneet Singh, CEO of PAR Technology, emphasized the strategic value of the partnership. "What Bolla is building with PAR isn’t a loyalty program – it’s an intelligence layer that turns data across customers, operations, and engagement into real-time action at every location," Singh said.

Jay Singh, Vice President of Bolla Oil, highlighted the program's focus on customer connection. "Bolla Rewards allows us to deliver immediate value through focused, easy-to-redeem offers while reinforcing the experience our guests expect," he stated.

The program is built for fast adoption, keeping the structure simple and valuable from day one. PAR Retail’s scalable technology positions Bolla to evolve its customer engagement strategy over time, introducing new experiences as business needs change.
