Petroleum & Convenience

Our petroleum and convenience clients need an integrated pay at the pump and in-store payment plan for customers hoping to be “in and out” within five minutes. This requires working with a payment processing company who understands the unique progressing needs of petroleum and convenience store owners. We have vast experience in working with simple, yet integrated systems, both at the pump and in the stores. We’ll help set up a process where you can accept all major cards, as well as fleet cards, through one simplified, easy process.

Faster Funding/ One Deposit for Petroleum & Convenience Clients

With Merchants First, you’ll immediately improve your cash flow. You’ll receive Wright Express funding within 24-48 hours (versus 30-32 days).  We offer several improvements to keep things simple and easy for you like:

  • One deposit for all card payments (for easy reconciliation)
  • 24 to 48 hour funding for all Visa, MasterCard, Discover and American Express deposits
  • We take our fees out once a month (NOT daily)
  • When you settle ALL American Express transactions with us, receive deposits 2 to 3 days sooner
  • We support fleet card transactions (in addition to all major cards)

Working with Merchants First for your Petroleum & Convenience Business

At Merchants First, we understand your unique needs. Each of our clients has a relationship manager assigned to their account so that your unique details and account are always understood and needs quickly met.  You and your relationship manager remain in constant communication so that you’ll both achieve your goal:  The success of your business.

Merchants First Services for Petroleum & Convenience Store Payments

Petroleum and convenience store payments run on their own track. Work with someone who’s experienced in the industry and can provide you a seamless, easy process that makes things simple for you, your employees and your customers.

Disruption Free Conversion 


Hate change? We actually don’t mind it. That’s because when you plan to make the change to Merchants First, we plan ahead, test and don’t leave until everything works seamlessly. We even provide a 3-month trial period, allowing you to leave at any time.

Easy reporting that’s accessible from anywhere

Our easy reporting allows us to email any report you’d like, in a format you and your payment team needs. Our online reporting and email reports are some of our client’s favorite features.

Fraud Alerts

Trying to detect employee fraud without any results? Fraud among employees has a history in the petroleum and convenience store business. Instead of spending thousands on expensive security systems and coming up with nothing, consider working with us and receive suspicious transaction reports emailed to your attention. You can then review the tapes when things appear suspicious and you receive an email – rather than wasting time and money.

Gift Card Package Programs

We have gift card solutions for our petroleum and convenience store clients. Get started by offering as little as 100 cards with matching carriers and J-hook counter stands to display at the sales counter. Watch your business boom, and customer base grow, with gift card options.

Hassle-Free Integration for POS Systems

In our experience, we’ve supported thousands of POS Systems, and helped each client seamlessly integrate their systems. If you need support and advise in choosing a POS system, we will work closely with you to find the best possible POS system for your company’s growing needs.

Merchants First supports hundreds of petroleum pump and POS providers including Gilbarco, Gasboy, Autogas, Verifone Ruby and Sapphire to name a few.  We have performed thousands of installs with no interruptions to our petroleum merchants.

Below is our list of continually supported systems. We are consistently adding certifications. If you do not see your vendor on the list, please contact us. We more than likely support that VAR, and have not updated our list yet. We are more than capable to support your system.
