Gilbarco partners with Patriot Capital to incentive EMV upgrades

Gilbarco Veeder-Root and Patriot Capital have announced a limited-time incentive program to help c-store operators upgrade their sites.

The program announced by the two companies offers convenience store retailers incentives of up to $13,000 per site. 

“We are excited to offer retailers the opportunity to achieve three objectives – growing their profits, improving protection of payment information and the security of their fuel” said Mark Williams, Vice President of Marketing, Gilbarco Veeder-Root.

The new program provides three levels of incentives around Gilbarco products such as Encore 700 S dispensers, and financing from Patriot Capital. 

Fuel retailers were given three more years to make their pumps EMV-ready by the major credit card operators – Visa, MasterCard and American Express, with many finding it hard to make the shift to chip-card technology by the initial deadline, October 2017.
