Click here for a video demonstration of the ExxonMobil
Speedpass+ app enabled for Ford SYNC AppLink.
Speedpass+ users can access the app from their Ford SYNC® 3
touch screen or by voice commands to authorize payment while
automatically earning Plenti loyalty points at Exxon and Mobil
stations.
“ExxonMobil’s use of mobile technology that makes life more
convenient for their customers can be easily integrated into Ford
vehicles,” said Dave Hatton, Ford global manager, mobile
applications and emergency services. “With SYNC AppLink, the
Speedpass+ experience becomes a more seamless part of our
customers’ journey.”
Using GPS, the vehicle recognizes it is at a participating Exxon
or Mobil station, making it easy for the driver to enter the pump
number and automatically pay for gas.
To pay for fuel using voice commands:
- Say, “Pay for fuel” or “Express
pay”
- Indicate which pump number to authorize
by saying the number; for instance, “1” or “Pump 1”
- Confirm fuel authorization and begin
fueling
Drivers also can use the app to search for and navigate to
approximately 9,400 participating Exxon and Mobil stations. Using
the Ford SYNC 3 touch screen, the car automatically shows a list of
nearby stations, along with directions, when a customer’s fuel
gauge drops below a specified fuel level.
SYNC AppLink provides drivers with the ability to control
compatible smartphone apps using their voice or the in-vehicle
touch screen. Developers can easily make their smartphone apps
compatible with SYNC by downloading and integrating the AppLink
software from the Ford Developer Program website.
