Bulloch Technologies and P97 Networks Form Canadian Partnership

Bulloch Technologies, Canada’s leading provider of point of sale and payment systems, and P97 Networks, the leader in cloud-based mobile commerce, have formed a business partnership to enable mobile payments across the extensive Bulloch network.

P97’s cloud-based solution enables frictionless mobile transactions for a variety of mobile wallets and card schemes, allowing retailers of all sizes to offer their customers greater payment flexibility without having to install new hardware. Embracing Conexxus technologies standards together empowers P97 and Bulloch to enable fast and easy indoor and outdoor mobile payments at gas stations and convenience stores around the U.S. and Canada.

“This agreement with Bulloch allows us to extend the convenience of mobile payments to additional markets across the globe,” Don Frieden, founder and CEO of P97 Networks, said. “We’re excited to add Bulloch as an important partner in our ecosystem.”

Bulloch Technologies, founded in 1986, is the Canadian leader of integrated point of sale, payment, loyalty and back office solutions. Bulloch is installed in approximately 60% of combined c-store and gas stations in Canada and processes over 500M transactions annually. Over a decade ago, the company was the first to deliver EMV, and more recently EMV Contactless at the pump in North America, and are active industry contributors to Conexxus, NACS, IFSF, and ACT Canada.

“Our partnership with P97’s mobile commerce ecosystem encourages customer loyalty, speed and convenience in an increasingly competitive industry,” said Dave de la Plante, Strategy and Program Director at Bulloch. “Using P97’s mobile commerce, we’re able to create a platform that can be easily adopted by retailers to implement the complete customer experience, and assure the Canadian petroleum and c-store industry continues to lead in innovation and the digital transformation.

P97 eases the purchasing process to increase sales, build greater brand loyalty, and lower operating costs. P97 is PCI DSS and SOC 2 Type II compliant, utilizing Microsoft Azure® Cloud Services with multifactor authentication to protect sensitive cardholder data. Adding Bulloch Technologies to its vast partner network further solidifies P97’s position as the top mobile commerce platform in the retail fuel industry.
