DULUTH, Ga.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jun. 27, 2017--
NCR Corporation (NYSE: NCR), a global leader in omni-channel solutions,
today announced that MFA Oil Company will be implementing NCR OPTIC 5,
the leading outdoor multimedia device and payment solution for outdoor
fuel retailing, at all of its Break Time convenience stores. This will
offer a unique, streamlined experience to its customers across all
dispenser makes and models.
MFA Oil, an energy and farmer-owned cooperative, operates 73 Break Time
convenience stores in Missouri and Arkansas. When Break Time wanted to
modernize its user interface and offer a consistent user experience
across all of its stores, the company chose the one-fits-all NCR OPTIC 5
NCR solution for its user-friendly software, open source platform and
cutting edge media management features. The NCR solution will allow MFA
Oil to self-maintain the software and ultimately reduce the total cost
of ownership.
“We needed one single solution to use across all of our dispenser
models, and NCR’s OPTIC 5 was the best option on the market,” said
Curtis Chaney, Senior Vice President of Retail at MFA Oil. “It allows us
to deliver convenient payment solutions to individual customers with
benefits and opportunities to enhance their experience at the pump,
drive loyalty and ultimately increase more conversions from forecourt to
storefront.”
“By opting for OPTIC 5, MFA Oil is bringing the latest pay-at-the-pump
technology to customers’ fingertips while connecting with individuals
while they fuel,” added David Wilkinson, Senior Vice President of NCR’s
Retail Group. “We are delighted to extend our cooperation with the
company and help MFA Oil build reliable relationships with fuel-and-go
drivers.”
NCR Optic 5 is a cost-effective industrial multimedia solution
tailor-made for outdoor fuel retailing. It supports a wide range of
payment options including debit, credit, “tap and go,” vouchers and
coupons, along with loyalty programs. Carefully sized, OPTIC 5 is small
enough to fit in any standard pump head or pedestal, yet large enough to
house a large graphical display with a user-friendly interface and
promotional advertising.
