The ECRS Open Fuel Server (OFS) integrates seamlessly with CATAPULT to handle fuel sales and other transactions within the same POS interface.

From pump authorization, to pre-sets, to pre-pays, the OFS empowers cashiers to manage all fuel dispensing stations from POS or service desk. Cashiers can manage stacked sales, disable selected pumps, and even stop fueling on-the-fly if required. The OFS makes collecting payment for fuel sales simple and fast. With just the single touch of a button, cashiers send fuel sales into the transaction journal alongside other items for purchase. Customers can also pay-at-pump with credit, debit, or gift cards (if allowed by the store).

CATAPULT offers advanced loyalty and membership functionality with its LoyaltyBot service, Loyalty Points, and CATAPULT Membership Server (CMS).
LoyaltyBot® allows retailers to set up marketing campaigns that automatically provide customers with rewards based on specific automated triggers that are easily configurable. Rewards are distributed via automated email service as eCoupons. Because eCoupons automatically associate with customer's account, no email or paper is required for redemption.

With Catapult® Loyalty Points, customers accumulate points based on their purchases. This is a flexible customer loyalty system giving the retailer full control over their specific program execution, from branding to point accrual and redemption parameters.

Member discounts can be calculated by price level, subtotal discounts, or both. Any number of member class profiles can be set and customized for greater versatility with member programs. CMS lets the cashier know the customer's account status immediately with an integrated interface that never requires leaving the point of sale.
