Published purpose

The current process for authorizing fueling transactions requires manual data input from drivers. This process is cumbersome and clunky, and can be improved. We will eliminate this experience with NFC tags and embedded vehicle telematics. This would remove the need for drivers to manually enter these pump prompts and would also remove any risk of fraudulent activity or human error that may occur. To enable this process, we would use NFC tag stickers that would be placed in the vehicle; the driver could then tap their mobile device on the tag to kick off the fueling process and authorize payment by capturing the vehicle information collected from the embedded telematics and tying it to their fueling event.
