PSI and Acumera partner for simplicity

Petroleum Solutions Inc. (PSI) and Acumera are partnering to simplify the convenience-store network environment.

“Our businesses are aligned to deliver, install and manage network solutions in an increasingly complex environment,” said John Keller, vice president of PSI. “PSI is partnering with Acumera to deliver solutions that address our customers’ network technology needs as the retail petroleum industry rolls out EMV technology and stronger payment security at the POS and pump.”

PSI and Acumera’s combined services give Texas fuel retailers access to managed network and security services. Acumera’s cloud-managed platform offers clients network visibility and 24/7 support.

“We are excited to partner with PSI in support of their customers. Our collaboration delivers complete network management, as well as the installation of the Gilbarco Secure Zone Router and the Verifone Commander market network service provider programs for secure remote access to their respective POS systems,” said Dirk Heinen, CEO of Acumera. “Together we are able to simplify network and payment security, as well as speed up Texas c-stores’ ‘EMV outside’ imperative.”
