Express Mart Arnold, Missouri
Express Mart Arnold is using a gas price promotion for those paying with BioPay in order to migrate their existing customers to a form of payment that lowers their costs. They are taking this initial cost savings and "giving it back" to their customers in order to change their payment behavior. Once the promotion is over, consumers will have made BioPay a habit and will continue to use BioPay to purchase, because they are convinced of the value of BioPay's convenience, speed and security.
