So, is Chevron/Texaco for pay at the pump, or just the convenience store?
just inside for now, the outdoor readers do not have NFC yet
Phones are not intrinsically safe. They couldn't have you use your phone beside the pump.
I hope Costco gets onboard soon now that Apple and Costco are friends again.
