Gilbarco Veeder-Root Partners with Acumera for Secure Remote Support for Passport® Point-of-Sale

Petroleum industry technology leader selects Acumera for secure, proactive support for forecourt EMV POS upgrades


GREENSBORO, NC, May 14, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gilbarco Veeder-Root has partnered with Acumera, a Payment Card Industry (PCI)-compliant managed security services provider, to deliver secure remote support for Gilbarco’s Passport point-of-sale system. The partnership supports Gilbarco’s plans to rapidly enable chip card (EMV) payments at the dispenser.

Gilbarco chose Acumera because they built a platform technology that is secure and flexible, so Gilbarco can quickly rollout chip card payments for dispensers at customers’ forecourts. Acumera’s flexible platform also greatly simplifies connectivity for Insite360, GVR’s cloud-based solution for POS and forecourt. Retailers can use Insite360 to remotely monitor their site and perform maintenance tasks like price change, warm start dispensers and update software.

“Acumera’s platform delivers an industry-leading security and visibility support platform for our Passport point-of-sale system, and they are able to meet our forecourt EMV timeline quickly,” says Mark Williams, VP of North America Marketing, Gilbarco. “Acumera’s remote support solution gives our help desk real-time access and visibility so we can better support our POS systems.”

“Since 2002 Acumera has designed compliant and secure networks for retailers with multiple locations. Our convenience store customers value us for our hands-on service culture, and because our platform is secure and simple to install and use,” says Dirk Heinen, Chief Executive Officer of Acumera. “We are excited to support Gilbarco’s forecourt EMV goals of security and rapid rollout.”
