Pay at the pump, from the phone
Drivers in a hurry fill up, pay and go.
With Techpayo a driver pays for the fuel from their own phone. The fill appears on a Techpayo device at your counter — pump, fuel type, maximum — the payment is guaranteed, and the queue is gone. It runs beside the till you already have — and it is the first step towards unattended fuelling.

The problem
The fill takes two minutes. The queue inside takes five.
A driver in a hurry does not want to park, walk in and wait behind someone buying coffee. Every minute at the counter is a pump that cannot turn — and a driver who will pick a quicker station next time.
How it works
A green light on your counter. No wait for the driver.
The driver authorises the fill in the app
They scan the QR code on the pump — that tells us which pump — and pick the fuel type. The app holds the maximum, say €80, on their card before a drop is dispensed.
The fill appears on the Techpayo device at your counter
“Pump 3 · Diesel · up to €80 · ref A7QK” — on our handheld or tablet, never on the driver’s phone, so it cannot be faked or reused. It prints a slip if you prefer paper.
Your employee reads the green light and releases the pump
Nothing to judge on a stranger’s screen: green on our device means Techpayo pays up to €80 for that pump. Any fill shown there, we pay — whatever happens with the driver afterwards.
Fuel, book, confirm
The driver fills up and leaves. Your employee books the actual amount to the Techpayo account on your till, like any fleet customer, and confirms it on the device with one tap. We charge the driver exactly that and release the rest.
For stations
Quicker for drivers. Guaranteed for you. A step towards unattended.
Quicker for drivers in a rush
No queue at the counter, no card machine, no change. Drivers who value their time choose the station where paying is quickest.
You are always paid
Every fill shown on our device is backed by our security bond. If the driver never pays us, that is our problem, not yours.
One device, nothing to connect
We place a small handheld or tablet at your counter. It talks to us, not to your till or your pumps; the sale goes through the on-account tender your till already has. No fees to you.
More fills per pump
A pump that turns faster serves more cars at peak, and a quick station earns the repeat visits of drivers in a hurry.
Fewer hours at the counter
Stage one runs with your staff. Stage two releases the pump from the phone, so you can serve drivers when the shop is closed and rely less on counter staff.
Reconciled by code
Each fill carries its code, pump and fuel type. We match what your staff confirm on the device against your account statement — so nothing slips.
Roadmap
Attended today. Unattended next.
We only promise what your site can do today. Stage two depends on the pump controller at your station and on its provider — we will tell you at the first visit which stage you can start with.

Pilot programme
Register your station.
We are opening the pilot to a small number of independent stations. Tell us about your site and we will come by, look at your till and counter, and say honestly which stage you can start with. No fees to the station during the pilot; the device comes from us.
