In recent years additional standards have been added for Electronic Funds Transfer. Formed in 1992 by a group of oil, pump and computer companies (including AGIP, BP, Petrofina, Mobil and Texaco), the principle of IFSF is to create standards so that devices from different manufacturers can interoperate without having to redevelop interfaces. ... there was great concern within the retail oil industry regarding the different protocols or interfaces used by equipment manufacturers [...] Proprietary protocols effectively locked customers to individual suppliers – who could often not meet the changing computer system needs of the Oil Company.

Artificial Intelligence
But just where does the convenience channel stand on the AI journey? According to a poll fielded during the session, roughly half of the attendees are currently exploring AI implementation. Approximately one quarter are running AI pilots, and another quarter are already using AI in production. According to the poll, only 2% have no plans to adopt AI into their organization. Of those already using AI, customer support and marketing are the top two uses. Other uses are operations, data analysis, data lakes, security and troubleshooting.<ref>Melissa Kress, Three Takeaways From the 2024 Conexxus Annual Conference Convenience Store News (2024-05-15) https://csnews.com/three-takeaways-2024-conexxus-annual-conference
