Retail fuel stops inject POS

GEELONG, AUSTRALIA: Radiant Systems, Inc. has announced an agreement with Gippsland Petroleum Group (GPG), a Radiant customer for more than 15 years, to deploy the latest generation of point-of-sale technology across its 20 retail fuel locations in Victoria.

The solution, which includes point of sale, fuel control and above-store systems, quickly moved beyond pilot as Radiant made use of its proven deployment methodology and a standard interface to the legacy back office system, as the company shares.

“The Radiant solution enables our headquarters staff to manage sophisticated promotions across all locations and gives our sites the ability to accept multiple payment types,” said Anthony Van Breugel, principle of GPG.

“To thrive in the Australian petrol market, we need tools that allow us to compete with the majors, and Radiant gives us just that.”

Radiant Configuration Manager enables head-office staff to manage combination specials and promotions, including cross promotion of convenience items and fuel, uniquely tailored to each location, says a press note. It covers designating certain fueling positions as pre-pay during specific times of day, and allowing for deploying outdoor card readers if competitive forces in Australia require this in the future.
