Challenge

Gas station retailers are struggling with labor shortages, resulting in long wait times, frustrated customers, and lost revenue. Traditional checkout systems require a cashier to handle transactions, adding to the labor cost and time required to complete a sale. With the increasing demand for a convenient and fast retail experience, gas station retailers need a solution that streamlines the checkout process and minimizes the need for additional staff.

Holiday Oil, a Utah-based gas station retailer, experienced this challenge firsthand. They needed to find a way to streamline their operations and provide customers with a seamless checkout experience, without relying heavily on labor.
