P97 to launch mobile commerce App using Microsoft Azure

The new version of the PetroZone mobile commerce app brings together Microsoft's unifying operating system, Windows 10, and Microsoft Azure Service Bus.

P97 Networks has released version 2.0 of its flagship PetroZone mobile commerce app on Windows 10, according to a press release. 

P97 Networks said the new release of the app brings together Microsoft Corp.'s unifying operating system, Windows 10, and Microsoft Azure Service Bus to deliver mobile payment and digital marketing capability for the retail fuel and convenience store industry. P97's PetroZone mobile commerce platform is now supported across Windows 10 devices, including tablets and smartphones.

"Today's consumers are mobile-centric — from buying coffee to boarding flights — so they want more access to data and services from the palm of their hand," Donald Frieden, P97 president and CEO, said in a statement. "With PetroZone, consumers can now find gas, shop prices, and save money at gas stations and c-stores with the convenience of their smartphone and the security of Windows 10 and Azure. That's the power of PetroZone."

"Performance is non-negotiable for our customers, and is critical to the success of their cloud-driven businesses," said Nicole Herskowitz, senior director of product marketing for Microsoft Azure. "Because of that, we're pleased to welcome P97 to Microsoft Azure."
