The Passport system provides timely sales and discount information and Service Station Computer Systems (SSCS) allows centralized configuration of the promotions through the co-ordinated implementation of the NAXML standard data formats by Gilbarco and SSCS, an added convenience of great benefit to the user.

Al Stoeberl, vice president of sales and marketing at SSCS, said: In the past the c-store operator programmed the Passport first, and then moved to the back office system to recreate the promotions so that both machines recognized them. It was double work that led to clerical errors and inconsistencies. The integration provided by Gilbarco and SSCS remedies the problem.
