Wawa Announces Rollout of Gilbarco's Contactless Card Readers

New technology delivers increased convenience and security for Wawa customers.

Greensboro, NC USA - November 07, 2005 - Wawa, one of the leading retail petroleum marketers in the United States, is adding Gilbarco's contactless card payment option to more than 1,900 fueling positions in the company's Gilbarco branded dispensers in Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, and Virginia.

Because Gilbarco's contactless card payment system is compliant with global standard ISO 14443, and is approved by all three major credit card companies, transactions qualify as a card swipe and therefore get the best transaction rate.

Wawa Fueling Equipment Manager Scott Boorse says the benefits of Gilbarco's contactless system provide enhanced consumer experience and security."Gilbarco's contactless payment system at the pump enables Wawa to offer its customers more payment options, faster transaction time, and more security than traditional payment methods. Offering contactless at the pump is consistent with our commitment to providing convenience to our customers." Gilbarco's contactless system provides Wawa with the most cost effective, safe, and integrated point of sale solution in the marketplace, Boorse says.

The program will be completed by early 2006.

Gilbarco Veeder-Root's Contactless Card Readers will be exhibited at the National Association of Convenience Stores (NACS) show booth # 1933, November 16-18, 2005 at the Las Vegas Convention Center
