Using Automation to Drive Superior Retail Customer Service

For many forecourts, retail customer service is the make-or-break element that determines their success. In order to meet the demands of the modern customer, automation is the defining solution. With forecourt automation systems and real-time data, you can streamline fueling, payments and inventory management — providing faster service and reducing errors.

Gilbarco Veeder-Root offers integrated solutions that help you enhance service, boost efficiency, and deliver an exceptional retail customer service experience, every time. With automation at the heart of your operations, you’ll optimize every customer interaction and ensure seamless, reliable service at all times.

Enhance Customer Experience at Gas Stations with Forecourt Payment Automation

Seamless payment solutions are a game-changer for forecourts, especially when it comes to retail customer service. Forecourt payment automation reduces friction at the pump, ensuring that transactions are quick, secure, and hassle-free. With Passport Suite C-Store Point of Sale (POS) and Back-Office (BOS), fuel retailers can integrate automated payment systems that support multiple payment methods — from contactless payments to loyalty cards — all in one streamlined solution.

Forecourt payment automation not only accelerates the transaction process but also enhances customer satisfaction by reducing wait times. Additionally, real-time monitoring through Retail Head Office (RHO) ensures you can manage pricing, promotions, and loyalty programs consistently across all sites. By improving the speed and accuracy of transactions, forecourt owners create a more enjoyable fueling experience, ultimately driving customer loyalty and increased sales.

Streamlining C-store Operations to Improve Service Speed

Improving retail customer service speed in the C-store is just as critical as quick fueling. With C-store management solutions systems like LIGO, you can automate inventory management, streamline pricing updates, and track sales data in real-time, reducing manual tasks and speeding up service.

LIGO, integrated with your DOMS PSS 5000 and Retail Head Office (RHO), ensures seamless synchronization between fuel sales, C-store inventory, and customer transactions. This C-store management solution boosts efficiency, minimizes stock discrepancies, and ensures faster checkouts, giving customers a smoother experience every time they stop by.

Real-Time Data for Smarter Decision Making

Making data-driven decisions quickly is essential for maintaining a competitive edge in retail customer service. Besides payment auction and C-store management solutions, retail customer service extends to product quality and fueling experience. With real-time fuel monitoring and forecourt automation systems, you can access accurate insights into fuel stock, pricing, sales, and customer behavior.

Retail Head Office (RHO) and LIGO provide instant visibility into site operations, allowing you to monitor and adjust inventory, pricing, and promotions as needed. This automation empowers you to make smarter, more informed decisions, enhancing operational efficiency and optimizing customer satisfaction across all locations.
With real-time data, forecourt owners can respond proactively to trends, reduce waste, and maintain consistent service quality — ultimately improving profitability and strengthening the customer experience.

Avoiding Operational Downtime and Enhancing Efficiency

Operational downtime can be a major disruptor to both retail customer service and profits.

The NorthStar Bundle integrates fuel management, inventory control, and site operations, providing a seamless solution that ensures your forecourt stays operational with minimal downtime.
