GREENSBORO, NC--(Marketwire - Oct 8, 2012) -  Retailers can now retrofit Encore and The Advantage dispensers with the leading EMV-certified payment system and large color screens, thanks to Gilbarco Veeder-Root's new line of FlexPay II Retrofit Kits. When bundled with Gilbarco's Applause TV with Outcast, preferred pricing and no-cost options are available for qualified sites.

FlexPay II Retrofit Kits are available in large and small color screen versions. Both models are designed to integrate seamlessly into the dispenser using Encore 700 S technology, creating a stronger brand presence to spark greater site traffic, drive in-store sales and improve customer loyalty.

In addition to giving retailers a jump on the 2017 deadline for EMV certification, FlexPay II Retrofit Kits better position retailers for future regulations and advancements in loyalty, mobile payment, as well as Gilbarco's Applause TV and new Purchase@Pump programs. The attractive, modular design includes provisions for future peripheral upgrades, and the platform provides the industry's most robust payment technology with the highest processing speed and RAM.

"Gilbarco's FlexPay II Retrofit Kits are the new industry standard in forecourt payment technology," said Travis Bouck, vice president of Marketing, North America, for Gilbarco Veeder-Root. "Retailers have been impressed with the operational and marketing benefits, including the ability to create a consistent customer experience with Applause TV across their existing installed base of dispensers."

Using the same CRIND™ electronics as the Encore 700 S, these retrofit kits provide the latest payment security technologies with EMV- and PCI-UPT certifications as standard features, while delivering a robust media platform designed to increase sales and a simpler upgrade path to meet evolving technology and security needs.

"The powerful, EMV-certified platform gives our customers the peace of mind that their dispensers will enable them to grow with the evolution of payment technology," Bouck said.

FlexPay II Retrofit Kits will be on display Oct. 8-10, 2012 at the NACS Show in Las Vegas. Visit Gilbarco Veeder-Root's booth (4033) to learn more.
