Smartphone-Centric Fuel Payments

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Kum & Go Has announced Mobile Fuel Pay at All Locations

— May 24, 2020 — Business
Kum & Go has announced that it is launching a new mobile fuel pay feature that will enable consumers to make gas purchases directly from their smartphone. The new feature will be available at all of the brand's 400 locations and will work by allowing them to start the pump without having to use the keypad to input information. The feature will work for &Rewards members and help them to earn rewards in an intuitive manner.

The Kum & Go mobile fuel pay feature was touted by President Tanner Krause who said, "Let's be honest, no one gets joy from starting a pump. On a cold winter's day, the last thing you want to be doing is standing outside paying for gas. Today, in our current moment, limiting common contact points is essential. So we created an app feature that significantly reduces the time to activate a pump and allows you to do most of it from the comfort of your vehicle. It’s the latest way Kum & Go is able to make your day better."
Trend Themes
1. Mobile Fuel Pay - Mobile fuel pay features are disrupting the traditional gas station experience by allowing consumers to make gas purchases directly from their smartphones.
2. Contactless Payments - Contactless payment technologies like smartphone-centric fuel payments are becoming increasingly popular as consumers seek convenient and hygienic ways to make transactions.
3. Streamlined Fueling Process - The introduction of mobile fuel pay features enables a streamlined fueling process by eliminating the need for consumers to use the keypad at the pump, saving time and reducing common contact points.
Industry Implications
1. Retail - The retail industry, specifically gas stations and convenience stores, can benefit from implementing mobile fuel pay features to enhance customer experience and drive customer loyalty.
2. Mobile Technology - The mobile technology industry can seize disruptive innovation opportunities by developing secure and user-friendly mobile payment solutions for the fueling industry.
3. Customer Loyalty Programs - Companies offering customer loyalty programs, like Kum & Go's &Rewards, can leverage mobile fuel pay features to attract and retain customers by offering convenient and rewarding fueling experiences.
