Global retailer chooses The ai Corporation’s payments technology to modernise its B2B payments capabilities
Circle K, the international fuel and mobility retail chain, has selected The ai Corporation’s (ai) payments platform, aiEazyFuel, to power its B2B mobile payments app, Circle K PRO.
The partnership builds on Circle K’s transformation of its B2B payments offering and enables business customers to pay directly for their fuel and other products via the Circle K PRO app. Using ai’s technology, Circle K can authorise, and process transactions initiated from the driver’s mobile device, offering a fast and secure payments experience.
