Fuel Retailing

Fuel retailers today face unique challenges, from handling high transaction volumes and complex fuel card operations to engaging customers through impactful loyalty programs—all while ensuring security, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. Cardtrend has mastered the complexities of fuel retailing with tailored, high-performance solutions designed to address these needs head-on.

How Cardtrend Serves Fuel Retailers

In today’s fast-paced fuel retail environment, the ability to provide seamless transactions, manage complex fleet accounts, and offer engaging loyalty programs is crucial for staying competitive. Cardtrend has navigated the complexities of fuel retailing by developing tailored, high-performance solutions that directly address these challenges, enabling fuel retailers to boost performance, security, and customer loyalty.

Stand-alone authorisation engine for high-speed, seamless fuel retail operations

One of iAuth’s standout features is its restrictions and velocities capability, which offers fuel retailers precise control over transaction settings. With a modular design, businesses can easily set restrictions on fuel transactions at different levels—whether it’s account-based, card hierarchy, or specific fuel cardholder settings. For example, fuel retailers can enforce maximum spend limits, limit purchase frequency, or apply volume constraints, ensuring tighter expense management. Additional controls, such as time-of-day restrictions or station-specific limits, provide even more granular oversight, all in real-time.

Thanks to its support for TCP (ISO 8583) and HTTP (REST API) communication protocols, fuel retailers can effortlessly integrate iAuth with various payment systems—be it indoor or outdoor terminals, kiosks, or mobile applications. This ensures compatibility across digital and physical platforms without the need for significant infrastructure changes. Security is a top priority for iAuth, offering PIN control, PCI-SSF compliance, and Message Authentication Code (MAC) encryption. iAuth also integrates with Hardware Security Modules (HSM) for added data protection, giving fuel retailers confidence in the security and integrity of every transaction.

With its scalable design and flexibility, iAuth helps fuel retailers not only meet today’s challenges but also remain future-ready with easy-to-implement extensions and upgrades.
