SmartFuel Vehicle Identification

“SmartFuel helps toreduce fraud, improve customer loyalty and provides more accurate, more reliable data.”

SmartFuel is Tokheim’s advanced vehicle identification solution. It is an automated refuelling system that incorporates fuel payment based on vehicle identification with two options for both the retail and fleet environments. It has been designed for oil companies, fleets, and petrol station owners to help overcome many of the limitations inherent in traditional fuel card technology.

How it works

The nozzle is inserted into the fuel tank. The vehicle tag details are validated by Fuel POS – Vehicle data, odometer or engine running time (for industrial vehicles) information is wirelessly transmitted during the authorisation process.

Communication between the vehicle tag and the nozzle unit localises the transaction to that specific nozzle. When wireless communication between the vehicle and the nozzle is maintained, fuel may be dispensed. The system controls fuel type and eliminates cross fuel contamination and unauthorised fuelling.

Once refuelling is complete the nozzle is returned to the pump. There is no need to sign any paper because all refuelling details are automatically stored either locally or remotely. Transaction slips may be requested from the attendant.

Vehicle Tag

The vehicle tag is a contactless microprocessor that is installed in the vehicle. It identifies the vehicle to the EPOS, providing vehicle identification, fuel type, plus payment information. Odometer/mileage readings are transmitted automatically by the vehicle tag to the site controller at the time of refuelling.

Radio Frequency Nozzle (RFN)

The RFN is a wireless device that slips over the nozzle and identifies the nozzle to the system. It is a robust system that is easy to install and does not require any adaptations to the nozzle. Only when the correct fuel nozzle is inserted in the fuel tank inlet will the authorisation be approved and fuel dispensed into the vehicle.

Driver Tags (Optional)

Tokheim’s hand-held driver tag is a “microprocessor-based Smart Card” that the fleet driver can present at the pump for driver identification. It can only be used in conjunction with the vehicle tag. The Driver Tag does not contain any method of payment and is for driver identification only; offering a greater level of security.

SmartFuel Components

Increase Fuel Sales

Most motorists typically use up to 3 fuel cards. This means an average petrol station only gets a third of the business. Once SmartFuel is installed, it becomes the only method of payment, allowing petrol stations to capture and secure the entire fuel volume.

Connect to Fuel POS

All our products are designed to seamlessly connect and SmartFuel is no exception. It integrates with the Fuel POS to provide a complete VIS, Dispenser and EPOS package.
