"The PMAA is a strong advocate for its members with its primary mission to

"At the PMAA, we are always looking for ways to better serve our members and
payment processing needs," said Dan Gilligan, president of the PMAA.  "In
deciding on a payments provider for our association, we considered many
factors including industry experience, value at a competitive price,
certifications on stand-alone and integrated systems, robust reporting and
customer support.  We also wanted a provider with a true differentiator. In
this case, RBS WorldPay offered several, substantial benefits including hybrid
batch settlement, which helps petroleum merchants realize the efficiency of
host capture with the accuracy of terminal capture.  Our relationship with RBS
WorldPay is truly a winning combination."
