Abstract
A promotion processing system for a vehicle may include a connected car device configured to be positioned in the vehicle, obtain a geographic vehicle position, and permit control of at least one application on a mobile wireless communications device. The promotion processing system may also include a promotion processing server configured to communicate with the connected car device to determine the geographic vehicle position and determine that the vehicle is within a threshold distance from a retailer based upon the geographic vehicle position. The promotion processing server may be configured to, upon the vehicle being within the threshold distance from the retailer, determine that the vehicle has stopped motion, and upon the vehicle stopping motion, generate a digital promotion redeemable at the retailer, and communicate the digital promotion to the connected car device.
