Spring Lake, MI – Bennett Pump Company, a worldwide provider of electronic petroleum dispensing equipment announced today the release of its Pacific fuel dispenser series.
The Pacific fuel dispenser incorporates the industry’s first Payment Card Industry (PCI) compliant payment system: Secure PumpPAY™ from VeriFone®, a worldwide leading provider of secure electronic payment systems. VeriFone’s Secure PumpPAY is a PCI approved solution that includes PCI certified keypad, and Magnetic Stripe Reader (MSR,) which supports the Triple Data Encryption Standard (TDES) method of encryption at the dispenser.
PCI standards require all new fuel dispensers to have PCI approved Encrypting PIN Pads (EPP) by January 1, 2009, and all existing fuel dispensers to support TDES by July 1, 2010. Bennett Pump Company is pleased to be able to offer its customers a PCI approved solution today, far ahead of the PCI deadlines.
Secure PumpPAY includes a familiar ATM style keypad with eight screen addressable keys for customer input and a hybrid card reader that accepts EMV chip and magnetic stripe cards. A 5.7 inch color display provides a dynamic digital merchandising solution allowing retailers to highlight bright, attention-getting messages to customers while they fuel their tanks. A built in contactless reader future-proofs your investment.
“We design and manufacture fuel dispensers. That’s our core business and it has allowed us to provide dispenser technology to over 20 other pump companies around the world,” says Bennett president, Tom Thompson. “By incorporating a secure electronic payment system from VeriFone into our new Pacific dispenser, we are offering our customers a powerful solution to meet the fast approaching PCI deadlines and helping them to safeguard their own fuel customers’ card data and PINs from being compromised.”
An intuitive, customer centric user interface in the Pacific dispenser makes it easy for customers to activate the dispenser, pay securely, and be on their way. Bright, large LCD sales display, LED next-step lighting cues, and perimeter suspended hoses contribute to an easy-to-use experience for the fuel customer creating additional brand loyalty for the fuel marketer.
