GREENSBORO, N.C. -- Gilbarcoobtained Interac Association Device Certification for outdoor payment solutions. This certification covers the full line of Gilbarco outdoor payment solutions, branded FlexPay, including CRIND and modular components that can be retrofitted to any existing dispenser.
This certification means that petroleum retailers in North America and globally now have a solution to process EMV transactions at the pump. The Gilbarco FlexPay offering also has Europay MasterCard Visa (EMV) Level 1 and Level 2 certification and Payment Card Industry PIN Entry Device (PCI PED) [image-nocss] approvals.
"Gilbarco demonstrated its leadership in payment security by involving customers like us in their development and commercialization processes for the FlexPay payment system. The FlexPay system in OEM, retrofit and modular forms provides Husky with tremendous opportunities to provide secure and convenient payment options to our customers. The capability to effectively deliver marketing programs via the FlexPay system is an essential feature as we make investment decisions to upgrade our payment terminals," said Terry Kinnunen, manager of retail technology at Husky Energy Corp.
Kirsten Paust, vice president of marketing for Gilbarco Veeder-Root, said, "This approval allows our customers to upgrade to an EMV terminal well in advance of the mandated timelines without accepting the risks and expense that would come with adding a third-party device."
FlexPay is available factory-installed in Gilbarco Encore S dispensers, as a modular retrofit kit or as individually approved components to upgrade any Gilbarco or Tokheim dispenser. In all cases, the FlexPay solution maintains the regulatory approvals and valuable warranty on the Gilbarco dispenser.
"We like the fact that FlexPay leverages our existing install base and saves us the cost associated with new dispenser installations," said Frank Cozzolino, manager of IT for Canadian Tire Petroleum. "Our customers will appreciate the integrated appearance and consistent user interface."
Gilbarco Veeder-Root and Gasboy are major suppliers of integrated fuel control, site management and support services for petroleum marketers and commercial fueling enterprises worldwide.
