Speedpass+ is a new app that ExxonMobil is rolling out in April of 2016. The app provides consumers with a fast, easy and convenient way to pay for fuel and car wash purchases using their smartphones. The app is available for Apple® and Android™ devices. Read the Speedpass+ FAQs for Dealers or take the training course on the ExxonMobil Training Resource Center to learn more.
This exciting new technology will be a landmark for the ExxonMobil brand, and will provide a competitive advantage across the entire network of Exxon or Mobil branded stores. No other oil company has anything like this yet, which will revolutionize the way consumers pay for their fuel.
This, like any other big product release, takes effort on the part of all parties. ExxonMobil has been working to perfect this app so that you, the retailer, can benefit from the innovative technology that consumers love. They have also contracted with LSI Industries to install QR codes on your pumps that relay which pump a consumer is at if the Geo Locator is not working. All of this is to ensure that customers have a good experience with the Speedpass+ app the first time.
Now, ExxonMobil needs your help to execute this new feature well so that it is a success across the board. The first thing that you will need to do is accept the software download on you Verifone or Gilbarco POS system.
The software update will be key in implementing the Speedpass+ app. Without it, the functionality will not work. That is why no site will receive any advertising unless the software has been updated.
This will take around an hour to complete, in which the site will be down at that time. We highly encourage you not to do the update on a Friday or the Weekend in case there is an issue.
After you have done the upgrade, you will receive a call from Verifone to do some configurations in your POS. Please take this call and do as they ask you to do. This will be the part that enables the Speedpass+ app.
Please follow through and do this upgrade so that you can be ready for roll out on April 1st. This is a huge deal for all Exxon or Mobil branded gas stations. It is a new era, and a new industry… get ahead of the game and may the competition commence!
