ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An automated fuel discounting system provides discounts to a club member at any one of a plurality of gas stations, each of the gas stations having a plurality of gas pumps. The system includes at least one Point of Sale (POS) console and an attendant controlled console. A remote HOST computer communicates with the attendant con- trolled console and is adapted to determine if the member card, which is received by the Point of Sale (POS) console, is an appropriate valid card. It also determines if club conditions have been complied with and authorizes credit and grants a discount if the conditions are met. The gas pumps have a display for displaying gas price and a processor for driving the display. The attendant con- trolled console communicates with the gas pump processor to supply the gas pump processor with discount data so that the discount is displayed on the display of the gas pump. The invention also relates to a method of automatically discounting fuel using the inventive system.
