MapQuest is a long-standing, widely used mapping and navigation platform with millions of users across the U.S. and internationally. While not as dominant as Google or Apple Maps, it remains a relevant tool for desktop users, mobile navigation, and embedded map services on websites.
Ensuring your business appears accurately on MapQuest helps increase your visibility and improves your local presence across multiple map ecosystems.
🔗 How Mobal Connects to MapQuest
Mobal does not connect to MapQuest directly, but your business data does reach MapQuest through trusted partners in our network.
✅ Here’s how it works:
MapQuest sources data from providers like TomTom, OpenStreetMap, and others.
One of MapQuest’s key data sources is TomTom, which receives its business data from Foursquare.
Foursquare is directly connected to Mobal, so when you update your business profile in Mobal, those updates are pushed to Foursquare → TomTom → MapQuest.
It’s an indirect sync — but Mobal handles the heavy lifting to make sure your business stays up to date across the chain.
🧭 How to Keep Your MapQuest Listing Accurate
To ensure your business details are correct on MapQuest:
Keep your Mobal profile up to date
Ensure your Foursquare connection is active
Verify and maintain your listings on other connected platforms (Google, Apple, etc.)
This allows your data to flow seamlessly through the ecosystem MapQuest relies on.
