TomTom partners with Foursquare to connect customers with millions of POIs worldwide

In its 12 years, Foursquare has built one of the world’s most trusted phone’s-eye-view of the world. 14+ billion user-verified check-ins, from its owned and operated apps (Swarm, Foursquare City Guide and Panel App), are the foundation of its powerful, proprietary Pilgrim technology that helps make sense of where phones go. Foursquare carefully vets the quality of data, ensuring what is on the map reflects reality.

You can find out which hotel is the best one to stay at during your next business trip, or whether that new restaurant around the corner is any good. Detailed POI data gives customers all the information they need to make well-informed decisions wherever they are.

As everyone’s requirements are different, TomTom has made POI data available in a number of formats that enable multiple applications to suit your business needs. Enterprise customers can license POIs in a dataset format, satisfying multiple use cases such as navigation, GIS and search on web or mobile applications. With access to millions of POI locations including restaurants, hotels, shops, gas stations, EV charging stations and many more, users can find the places and services they need wherever they are.

At TomTom we want to ensure everyone can access location data to make well-informed travel decisions. Going somewhere new always starts with a search, and you can do this from your embedded car navigation system or the smartphone in your pocket.

Through our partnership with Foursquare, TomTom will give you access to a fresh, extensive, flexible and global POI database to help your users find exactly where they want to go.
