HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--P97, a leader in cloud-based mobile commerce, together with Petro-Canada, a Suncor business, delivers new customer experiences with Pay at the Pump and EV Charging functionality through the Petro-Canada and Petro-Canada EV Apps. Each App delivers a valuable service for its consumers in their digital journey.

Built on P97’s mobile commerce platform, the retail fueling app helps customers locate and navigate to nearby Petro-Canada sites, pay for fuel, and receive and redeem Petro-Points, Petro-Canada’s proprietary loyalty program. It also offers its customers enhanced security, efficiency, and value, improving the customer purchase experience at the pump.

The P97 platform eases the purchase process for consumers while increasing sales opportunities, building brand loyalty, and lowering transaction costs. The P97 mobile commerce platform is PCI DSS and SOC 2 Type II compliant, utilizing Microsoft Azure^® Cloud Services with multifactor authentication to protect sensitive cardholder data.

To streamline the mobile payment strategy, P97 integrates with Petro-Canada’s existing point of sale system provided by Bulloch Technologies. P97’s platform also integrates with Petro-Points, which allows customers to easily earn rewards with every purchase.

“Petro-Canada recognizes the importance of enhancing every step of the customer journey,” Donald Frieden, founder and CEO of P97 said. “We are thrilled to be working with them on their mobile payments and digital marketing initiative and look forward to extending our partnership to other channels, like connected car.”

Spanning from Halifax, NS to Victoria, BC, Petro-Canada EV fast chargers are located every 250 km or less, in close proximity to the TransCanada Highway.
