GK Software, a global provider of retail applications for real-time omnichannel business systems, announced that QuikQ, a full-service provider of fuel payment, corporate payment, and fraud prevention solutions, has completed certification with its platform. This integration enables QuikQ’s commercial fuel cards to be accepted by U.
S. fuel retailers that utilize GK Drive, a solution designed to link fuel station infrastructure with store operations within GK’s CLOUD4RETAIL platform.
GK Software, which serves over 40,000 locations globally including major convenience store retailers, offers a single payment solution that integrates transactions between the c-store and the fuel pump. This facilitates a streamlined process for both customers and stores. The company also maintains an extensive partner network to enhance its solution offerings for convenience retailers.
QuikQ’s offerings include both traditional fuel card capabilities and cardless digital fuel payments. These solutions are designed to reduce fraud at the pump through an innovative, real-time authentication method via SMS text messaging. With the certification, commercial drivers gain increased choice and flexibility, along with assured secure transactions, across a broader network of convenience and fuel locations compatible with GK Drive.
Rich Taute, VP of sales and strategy at QuikQ, commented on the development, stating, “QuikQ is committed to providing top-notch service to fleets across the United States, and we’re thrilled to now be a certified GK partner. Our partnership with GK is an important step as QuikQ continues to expand and strengthen our partnerships with the commercial fleet community.”
