The Spinx Company today announced that it has selected Tote, an AI point-of-sale platform built specifically for fuel and convenience retail, to provide point-of-sale, self-service kiosks and foodservice technology across all its locations.
“The deployment, going live in [the second half of] 2026, will provide Spinx with integrated point-of-sale and foodservice technology, including self-service kiosks and kitchen display systems, that run on the chain's existing hardware infrastructure. Tote's hardware-agnostic approach allows retailers to modernize without replacing existing terminals, reducing implementation risk and cost while maintaining operational continuity,” Tote said in a press release.
Tote said its platform powers its "one customer, one cart" experience, unifying shopping activity across pump, mobile and register. This architecture “enables rapid innovation, replacing fragmented legacy systems with a flexible foundation designed to evolve alongside advances in AI. The platform addresses both point-of-sale and foodservice operations.”
"When we discovered it could also handle our foodservice technology needs, the decision became clear. We could modernize with a single flexible platform that delivers better customer experiences, improves operational efficiency and applies AI in practical, innovative ways,” said Luis Ackerman, vice president of technology at Spinx.
“A lot of retailers are still working around legacy POS systems that are expensive to maintain, slow to change and hard to scale across locations. … By connecting forecourt and in-store activity into a single experience, retailers can engage customers earlier in their visit, get a clearer view of the full customer journey and more find ways to drive engagement and revenue without the disruption of a full rip-and-replace,” Shyam Rao, founder and CEO of Tote, told NACS.
Rao added: “Because AI support is built into the POS, associates can get answers and guidance in the moment, which helps reduce friction on the floor and keeps operations running more smoothly. On the IT side, modern deployment and centralized device management make systems easier to maintain and update, so teams spend less time keeping things running and more time focused on improvements that actually move the business forward.”
In August 2025, Tote announced a $22.6 million Series A funding round. Tote said it is building technology specifically for the U.S. fuel and convenience industry.
