How it works
Contactless Payment employs an electronic system located in the pump to "talk" with a miniature chip embedded in a credit card or a key fob (a transponder linked to a credit or check card). When the card is presented near the contactless point of sale terminal, customers enjoy immediate pay-at-the-pump convenience. Gilbarco's Contactless Payment system accepts either contactless or magnetic stripe payment.
