Petrol station operators in Ireland are under pressure to deliver quicker transactions, stronger security, and smoother customer journeys while keeping operations profitable. Modern petrol station software and EPoS technology make this possible by integrating fuel management, retail sales, and operational oversight into one connected platform.
As Ireland’s leading provider of forecourt systems, CBE develops EPoS solutions designed for the specific needs of the sector—combining reliability, scalability, and advanced features that work in both the shop and on the forecourt.
Seamless Customer Experience and Operational Efficiency
Integrated EPoS technology allows fuel, shop purchases, and services like car washes to be processed together in one transaction, cutting queues and reducing errors. According to ShelfLife magazine’s analysis of forecourt technology, operators who invest in unified systems not only improve speed at the till but also benefit from more accurate sales tracking and better promotion management.
CBE’s Forecourt EPoS solutions also include customer loyalty tools that encourage repeat visits and boost average spend—helping Irish operators deliver the convenience and personalisation that today’s consumers expect.
Strengthening Security and Risk Management
Security challenges such as fuel drive-offs, till discrepancies, and stock losses can impact profitability. Modern EPoS systems mitigate these risks with encrypted payments, detailed transaction logging, and role-based access. As highlighted in ShelfLife’s feature on integrated systems, linking your EPoS to monitoring and alert systems helps staff respond instantly to suspicious activity.
The CBE FutaTill platform includes built-in loss prevention features and supports integration with CCTV, ensuring every transaction is recorded and verified.
Insight-Driven Decision Making with Data
Industry research from GlobalData on Ireland’s service station market shows that forecourts remain a vital part of Ireland’s retail landscape, with steady growth expected over the coming years. Access to real-time sales data, wetstock levels, and performance reports means operators can align their strategies with market trends, optimise staffing, and avoid costly stockouts.
With CBE’s systems, all this data is available in one place—accessible both on-site and remotely—so decision-making is faster and more informed.
Future Trends: Intelligent and Connected Forecourts
Forecourt innovation is accelerating. The “Gas Station of the Future” concept outlined by industry researchers predicts AI-driven analytics, Internet of Things (IoT) integration, and predictive maintenance becoming standard. These capabilities will allow operators to personalise offers in real time, adjust pricing dynamically, and automate more routine tasks.
CBE’s EPoS platforms are designed to be future-ready, ensuring your forecourt can adapt as these technologies enter the Irish market.
